Subject: [PATCH] libnfnetlink: initialize attribute padding to resolve
valgrind warnings
==12195== Syscall param socketcall.sendto(msg) points to uninitialised byte(s)
==12195== at 0x51209C3: __sendto_nocancel (syscall-template.S:81)
==12195== by 0x53E4D12: nfnl_send (libnfnetlink.c:391)
==12195== by 0x53E6952: nfnl_query (libnfnetlink.c:1569)
==12195== by 0x4E344AF: __build_send_cfg_msg.isra.1 (libnetfilter_log.c:143)
==12195== by 0x4E34710: nflog_bind_group (libnetfilter_log.c:413)
==12195== by 0x400CB1: main (nfulnl_test.c:77)

This patch sets to zero the padding that is included to align the
attribute payload.
