rtnl_fill_statsinfo() is filling skb with one mandatory if_stats_msg structure.
nlmsg_put(skb, pid, seq, type, sizeof(struct if_stats_msg), flags);
But if_nlmsg_stats_size() never considered the needed storage.
This bug did not show up because alloc_skb(X) allocates skb with
extra tailroom, because of added alignments. This could very well
be changed in the future to have deterministic behavior.
Fixes: 10c9ead9f3c6 ("rtnetlink: add new RTM_GETSTATS message to dump link stats")
