This change enhances the robustness of validate_userspace() by ensuring that all Netlink attributes are fully contained within the parent attribute. The previous use of nla_parse_nested_deprecated() could silently skip trailing or malformed attributes, as it stops parsing at the first invalid entry. By switching to nla_parse_deprecated_strict(), we make sure only fully validated attributes are copied for later use.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
