[NETFILTER]: nfnetlink_log: fix sending of multipart messages
The following patch fixes the handling of netlink packets containing multiple messages. As exposed during netfilter workshop, nfnetlink_log was overwritten the message type of the last message (setting it to MSG_DONE) in a multipart packet. The consequence was libnfnetlink to ignore the last message in the packet. The following patch adds a supplementary message (with type MSG_DONE) af the end of the netlink skb.
