genetlink: correctly begin the iteration over policies
The return value from genl_op_iter_init() only tells us if
there are any policies but to begin the iteration (and therefore
load the first entry) we need to call genl_op_iter_next().
Note that it's safe to call genl_op_iter_next() on a family
with no ops, it will just return false.
This may lead to various crashes, a warning in
netlink_policy_dump_get_policy_idx() when policy is not found
or.. no problem at all if the kmalloc'ed memory happens to be
zeroed.
Fixes: b502b3185cd6 ("genetlink: use iterator in the op to policy map dumping")
