rtm_del_nexthop() and nh_valid_get_bucket_req() declare their nlattr
tb arrays sized to ARRAY_SIZE(rtm_nh_policy_del) and
ARRAY_SIZE(rtm_nh_policy_get_bucket) respectively. Both policies lack
an entry for NHA_OP_FLAGS, so the tb arrays are smaller than what
nh_valid_get_del_req() accesses via tb[NHA_OP_FLAGS].
This causes an out-of-bounds stack read. The garbage pointer value
read from beyond the tb array is then dereferenced in nla_get_u32(),
triggering a NULL pointer dereference panic.
The bug was introduced when commit 8682b7dd4f6c ("nexthop: Fix
out-of-bounds access during attribute validation") shrank the tb
arrays from NHA_MAX+1 to ARRAY_SIZE(policy), but the policies were
not updated to include NHA_OP_FLAGS even though nh_valid_get_del_req()
already accessed that attribute.
Add [NHA_OP_FLAGS] entries to rtm_nh_policy_del and
rtm_nh_policy_get_bucket so the tb arrays are large enough.
