netlink: Always copy on mmap TX.
Checking the file f_count and the nlk->mapped count is not completely sufficient to prevent the mmap'd area contents from changing from under us during netlink mmap sendmsg() operations. Be careful to sample the header's length field only once, because this could change from under us as well. Fixes: 5fd96123ee19 ("netlink: implement memory mapped sendmsg()") Signed-off-by: David S.
