[PATCH] netlink: Annotate struct netlink_policy_dump_state with __counted_by

[Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>]

Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by
attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have
their accesses bounds-checked at run-time via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for
array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family
functions).

As found with Coccinelle[1], add __counted_by for struct netlink_policy_dump_state.

Additionally update the size of the usage array length before accessing
it. This requires remembering the old size for the memset() and later
assignments.
