[PATCH] net/ipv4/arp.c: Fix arp reply when sender ip 0 (was: Strange behavior in arp probe reply, bug or feature?)

["Jonas Danielsson" <the.sator@gmail.com>]

Fix arp reply when received arp probe with sender ip 0.

Can't find any ground in RFC2131 to send a non-valid arp-reply in
the special case of sender ip being set to 0.

- Bug fix for arp handling when sender ip is set to 0.
Send a correct arp reply instead of one with sender ip and sender
hardware adress in target fields.

Now sends target ip and target hw as received in arp probe.
