Subject: [PATCH] libnetlink: don't confuse variables in rtnl_talk()

Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1288042

    libnetlink: don't confuse variables in rtnl_talk()

    There is two variables named 'len' in rtnl_talk. In fact, commit
    c079e121a73a didn't work. For example, it was possible to trigger
    a seg fault with this command:
    $ ip link set gre2 type ip6gre hoplimit 32

    Let's rename the argument len to maxlen.

    Fixes: c079e121a73a ("libnetlink: add size argument to rtnl_talk")
