This refactors the additions to both mctp_dump_addrinfo(), and
mctp_rtm_getneigh() - two cases where we're calling nlh_data() on an
an incoming netlink message, without a prior nlmsg_parse().

For the neigh.c case, we cannot hit the failure where the nlh does not
contain a full ndmsg at present, as the core handler
(net/core/neighbour.c, neigh_get()) has already validated the size
through neigh_valid_req_get(), and would have failed the get operation
before the MCTP hander is called.

However, relying on that is a bit fragile, so apply the nlmsg_payload
refector here too.
