A pppoe session is identified by its session ID and MAC address.
Currently pppoe does not check if the received pkg has the correct
MAC address. This is a problem when the eth I/F is in promisc mode
as then any DST MAC address is accepted.
---

v2 - The MAC address check should encompass all pppoe pkgs,
     not only the relay type.
