batman-adv: Only write requested number of byte to user buffer
commit b5a1eeef04cc7859f34dec9b72ea1b28e4aba07c upstream.
Don't write more than the requested number of bytes of an batman-adv icmp
packet to the userspace buffer. Otherwise unrelated userspace memory might get
overridden by the kernel.
