>What does AF_UNSPEC imply about the format of the sockaddr?

That it depends on the usage..?  I came up with this based on using ioctl to
manipulate the ARP cache:

SIOCSARP - Add a new entry to the ARP cache or modify an existing entry ...
arp_ha is a generic socket address structure with sa_family set to AF_UNSPEC and
sa_data containing the hardware address (e.g. the 6-byte Ethernet address).

The librdmacm should have enough context to interpret the meaning of the
query_gid response.
