        <pre>Macro mnl_attr_for_each_nested contains a conversion from void* to struct
nlattr*.  (It contains a call to mnl_attr_get_payload(), which returns void*;
the result is assigned to arg0 of the macro, which is struct nlattr*.)

Therefore, C++ compilation fails.  (g++ throws "error: invalid conversion from
‘void*’ to ‘const nlattr*’.")

This is similar to the issue with macro nla_for_each_nested in libnl, that has
been fixed by adding a cast:
