[PATCH] generic empty __check_native implementation


Hi,

sysdeps/posix/getaddrinfo.c calls a __check_native function to 
eventually check whether an interface uses a native transport; however, 
the only existing implementation of it is in 
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/check_native.c, meaning any GNU non-Linux OS 
will get an undefined reference when linking libc due to its lack.

Attached there is an empty implementation of __check_native, in the same 
place as another internal inet function (__check_pf) has its generic 
version. At least at a quick look it seems the empty implementation 
should pose no issues (the Linux one can even not change a1_native and 
a2_native).

Does it look good?

Provide a generic empty version of __check_native.

Add an empty implementation of __check_native, as used in the posix version of getaddrinfo.
This allows non-Linux GNU-based OSes to compile.
