Don't trust the kernel to send payload of certain size. Sanitize that by
checking the payload length in mnlu_cb_stop() and mnlu_cb_error() and
only access the payload if it is of required size.
Note that for mnlu_cb_stop(), this is happening already for example
with devlink resource. Kernel sends NLMSG_DONE with zero size payload.
