Each device, when accessed, gets a pointer to a 'struct ifreq' this
structure contains the IP address as well as other network parameters.
See ../linux/net/core/dev.c and /usr/include/linux/if.h.
This is readily address from user-space. I don't know if the required
stuff is public so it might require some work from a module.
