[PATCH net-next] netlink: Add nla_memdup() to wrap kmemdup() use on nlattr

From: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch>
Date: 2016-10-26 08:53:27
Also in: linux-wireless
Subsystem: 802.11 (including cfg80211/nl80211), bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), bpf [networking] (tcx & tc bpf, sock_addr), networking [general], tc subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Berg, Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Jamal Hadi Salim, Jiri Pirko, Linus Torvalds

Wrap several common instances of:
	kmemdup(nla_data(attr), nla_len(attr), GFP_KERNEL);
