When sending ARP requests over AX.25 links the hwaddress in the neighbour
cache are not getting initialized. For such an incomplete arp entry
ax2asc2 will generate an empty string resulting in /proc/net/arp output
like the following:
To do so it change ax2asc to put the string "*" in buf for a NULL address
argument. Finally the HW address field is left aligned in a 17 character
field (the length of an ethernet HW address in the usual hex notation) for
readability.
