Subject: [PATCH] netlink: Fix nla_parse_nested_compat() to call nla_parse()
 directly

The purpose of nla_parse_nested_compat() is to parse attributes which
contain a struct followed by a stream of nested attributes.  So far,
it called nla_parse_nested() to parse the stream of nested attributes
which was wrong, as nla_parse_nested() expects a container attribute
as data which holds the attribute stream.  It needs to call
nla_parse() directly while pointing at the next possible alignment
point after the struct in the beginning of the attribute.

With this patch, I can no longer reproduce the reported leftover
warnings.
