Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * Infiniband users relying on DHCP can't use DHCP relay.

  [Test Case]

   * Comment #13
   * Mellanox has tested themselves.
   * Clear way of knowing if fix worked (tcpdump).

  [Regression Potential]

   * Only related to Infiniband.
   * Infiniband support could stop working (unlikely, already tested).

  [Other Info]

  DHCP client is sending discover with Unicast type request for the
  offer, in this configuration of IB to ETH through a relay we need the
  type to be broadcast.

  The issue is that when using dhclient from the client on Ubuntu (and only on 
Ubuntu) with MOFED or inbox driver, we see that that DHCP server offers in 
unicast instead of broadcast. It seems there is no way to correct this from the 
client side using dhclient configuration file.
  this issue exist even when we use always-broadcast statement in configuration 
file.

  in other vendors we see that discover request type is broadcast.
  attached pcap files from working (other vendor) and not working (Ubuntu) 
clients.

  DHCP CLIENT (IPoIB)
  Ubuntu 14.04  kernel 3.13.0-74
  Mellanox OFED 3.1-1.0.3 or inbox driver
  isc-dhcp-client                  4.2.4-7ubuntu12.3
