net: rtnetlink: fix error handling in rtnl_fill_statsinfo()

Browse source

The clang static analyzer reports this issue
rtnetlink.c:5481:2: warning: Undefined or garbage
  value returned to caller
  return err;
  ^~~~~~~~~~

There is a function level err variable, in the
list_for_each_entry_rcu block there is a shadow
err.  Remove the shadow.

In the same block, the call to nla_nest_start_noflag()
can fail without setting an err.  Set the err
to -EMSGSIZE.

Fixes: 216e690631 ("net: rtnetlink: rtnl_fill_statsinfo(): Permit non-EMSGSIZE error returns")
