nl80211: always check nla_nest_start() return value

jmberg-intel · jmberg-intel · commit 76e1fb4b5532 · 2016-09-15T16:46:17.000+02:00
If the message got full during nla_nest_start(), it can return
NULL. None of the cases here seem like that can really happen,
but check the return value nonetheless.
