netlink: Add nla_memdup() to wrap kmemdup() use on nlattr
Wrap several common instances of: kmemdup(nla_data(attr), nla_len(attr), GFP_KERNEL); Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Acked-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
