Log Message:
arp: allow to send packets without an ARP resolution just after receiving an 
ARP request

On receiving an ARP request, the current implemention creates an ARP
cache entry but with ND_LLINFO_NOSTATE.  Such an entry still needs
an ARP resolution to send back a packet to the requester.  The original
behavior before introducing the common ND framework didn't need the
resolution.  IPv6 doesn't as well.  To restore the original behavior,
make a new ARP cache entry with ND_LLINFO_STALE like IPv6 does.
