Right, but that's impossible, isn't it?

Yeah. Actually on a quick check this is the only caller that even
checks for this case. So probably the check should go in svc_addr_len.
Maybe we should be nice and make it a warning.

svcrpc: don't bother checking bad svc_addr_len result
None of the callers should see an unsupported address family (only one
of them even bothers to check for that case), so just check for the
buggy case in svc_addr_len and don't bother elsewhere.
