Log message:
	Allow fea clients to TX only if necessary.  I.e., don't force them to register
	for reception of packets if they only care about TXing.  The ideal
	implementation would create a raw socket for TXing only.  This patch instead
	creates a "traditional" TX/RX raw socket, but creates an input filter that
	matches no packets.  The latter approach is easier to implement (less changes
	and less intrusive) although the former might be better - e.g., avoid promisc or
	other RX related processing.
