Title: Change the libnetlink function used to query link statistics

Change the libnetlink function used to query link statistics to match
iproute2's behavior and thus not trip on the kernel's new parsing of
optional attributes for RTM_GETLINK.

Starting with linux-3.3-rc5 kernel at each interval netlink plugin triggers
three lines of kernel log:
netlink: 12 bytes leftover after parsing attributes.
