Terminate process on invalid netlink response from kernel [BZ #12926]
The recvmsg system calls for netlink sockets have been particularly
prone to picking up unrelated data after a file descriptor race
(where the descriptor is closed and reopened concurrently in a
multi-threaded process, as the result of a file descriptor
management issue elsewhere).  This commit adds additional error
checking and aborts the process if a datagram of unexpected length
(without the netlink header) is received, or an error code which
cannot happen due to the way the netlink socket is used.

	[BZ #12926]
	Terminate process on invalid netlink response.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/netlinkaccess.h
	(__netlink_assert_response): Declare.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/netlink_assert_response.c: New file.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Makefile [$(subdir) == inet]
	(sysdep_routines): Add netlink_assert_response.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/check_native.c (__check_native): Call
	__netlink_assert_response.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/check_pf.c (make_request): Likewise.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ifaddrs.c (__netlink_request): Likewise.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Versions (GLIBC_PRIVATE): Add
	__netlink_assert_response.
