Yes, that's long overdue. I'll spin up a patch on top of this one to do
that. I'd suggest that we call it "addr.h" to keep it in parity with
the "addr.c" file that's in the sunrpc directory, since we'll need to
move the prototypes for those functions as well.

I'm not clear on what you mean here. This patch should make it so that
the server keeps the correct scopeid along with the cb address that it
tracks for a client (something that I don't think it does properly
today).
