H A Drtnetlink.cdiff 155fb43b70b5fce341347a77d1af2765d1e8fbb8 Wed Mar 09 12:29:14 CST 2022 Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> net: limit altnames to 64k total

Property list (altname is a link "property") is wrapped
in a nlattr. nlattrs length is 16bit so practically
speaking the list of properties can't be longer than
that, otherwise user space would have to interpret
broken netlink messages.

Prevent the problem from occurring by checking the length
of the property list before adding new entries.
