Subject: [PATCH v1] i40e: Add length check for IFLA_AF_SPEC parsing

The nla_for_each_nested parsing in function i40e_ndo_bridge_setlink()
does not check the length of the attribute. This can lead to an
out-of-attribute read and allow a malformed nlattr (e.g., length 0) to
be viewed as a 2 byte integer.

This patch adds the check based on nla_len() just as other code does,
see how bnxt_bridge_setlink (drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnxt/bnxt.c)
parses IFLA_AF_SPEC: type checking plus length checking.

Fixes: 51616018dd1b ("i40e: Add support for getlink, setlink ndo ops")
