Simply setting 0 is wrong. That would give the impression that the thing
worked if support for a new transport address family was added and came
through this function without full modification (say AF_INET7 becomes a
thing).
A better way to do things would be to add a default case into the
send_fragmentable switch statement that either BUG's or sets -EAFNOSUPPORT.
