Avoid casts between unsigned char * and struct nlmsghdr
The virNetlinkCommand() method takes an 'unsigned char **'
parameter to be filled with the received netlink message.
The callers then immediately cast this to 'struct nlmsghdr',
triggering (bogus) warnings about increasing alignment
requirements
util/virnetdev.c: In function 'virNetDevLinkDump':
util/virnetdev.c:1300:12: warning: cast increases required alignment of target type [-Wcast-align]
resp = (struct nlmsghdr *)*recvbuf;
^
util/virnetdev.c: In function 'virNetDevSetVfConfig':
util/virnetdev.c:1429:12: warning: cast increases required alignment of target type [-Wcast-align]
resp = (struct nlmsghdr *)recvbuf;
Since all callers cast to 'struct nlmsghdr' we can avoid
the warning problem entirely by simply changing the
signature of virNetlinkCommand to return a 'struct nlmsghdr **'
instead of 'unsigned char **'. The way we do the cast inside
virNetlinkCommand does not have any alignment issues.
