rtnetlink: Fix handling of disabled L3 stats in RTM_GETSTATS replies
When L3 stats are disabled, rtnl_offload_xstats_get_size_stats() returns size of 0, which is supposed to be an indication that the corresponding attribute should not be emitted. However, instead, the current code reserves a 0-byte attribute. The reason this does not show up as a citation on a kasan kernel is that netdev_offload_xstats_get(), which is supposed to fill in the data, never ends up getting called, because rtnl_offload_xstats_get_stats() notices that the stats are not actually used and skips the call. Thus a zero-length IFLA_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_L3_STATS attribute ends up in a response, confusing the userspace. Fix by skipping the L3-stats related block in rtnl_offload_xstats_fill().
