Syslinux - Jul 2015 - [PATCH] Updated udp.c to use real client ip and subnetmask values if on local subnet

I've tried to find the relationship between UseDefaultAddress and DHP relays
but I couldn't find anything. The use of DHCP relays should be really
transparent...

As noted in the reply to Matt Fleming's initial EFI networking
implementation, I think some systems go stupid on UseDefaultAddress
and AllowPromiscuous as true.  I just tested and saw no negative
results from killing the codelines setting AllowPromiscuous in
efi/udp.c on my machines.

This is good; BTW what was the rationale at the time for 
taking AllowPromiscuous=1 ??
