[PATCH v4] nfsd: validate sockaddr length per family in listener_set

nfsd_sock_nl_policy declares NFSD_A_SOCK_ADDR as a bare NLA_BINARY
attribute with no minimum length. A CAP_NET_ADMIN caller can send a
16-byte NFSD_A_SOCK_ADDR with sa_family=AF_INET6, causing a 12-byte
OOB read across three consumers (rpc_cmp_addr_port, svc_find_listener,
kernel_bind).

Validate the attribute length in both nlmsg_for_each_attr_type loops in
nfsd_nl_listener_set_doit(): first ensure it is large enough to read
sa_family, then require the full length for the address family
(sizeof(struct sockaddr_in) for AF_INET, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in6)
for AF_INET6), and reject any other family. This replaces the
open-coded "nla_len < sizeof(struct sockaddr)" check, which was too
short for AF_INET6.

In the listener-creation loop, report the error rather than silently
succeeding. Previously a malformed or unsupported address was skipped,
and if it was the only one supplied the call returned 0. Set -EINVAL
for a too-short address and -EAFNOSUPPORT for an unsupported family
before continuing, so userspace still sees the failure.
