netlink: remove the flex array from struct nlmsghdr
commit c73a72f4cbb47672c8cc7f7d7aba52f1cb15baca upstream.
I've added a flex array to struct nlmsghdr in
commit 738136a0e375 ("netlink: split up copies in the ack construction")
to allow accessing the data easily. It leads to warnings with clang,
if user space wraps this structure into another struct and the flex
array is not at the end of the container.
