UCI configuration

dhcp.@host[n].ip

needs to be optional.

According to

http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/docs/dnsmasq-man.html

. dhcp-host isn’t just for static leases, it can be used to specify lease time, hostname etc, so IP isn’t mandatory. Their example is “For example –dhcp-host=00:20:e0:3b:13:af,wap,infinite tells dnsmasq to give the machine with hardware address 00:20:e0:3b:13:af the name wap, and an infinite DHCP lease.”

OpenWrt currently ignores dhcp.@host[n], if IP isn’t provided.
