RDMA/cma: Distinguish between sockaddr_in and sockaddr_in6 by size

Clang can do some aggressive inlining, which provides it with greater
visibility into the sizes of various objects that are passed into
helpers. Specifically, compare_netdev_and_ip() can see through the type
given to the "sa" argument, which means it can generate code for "struct
sockaddr_in" that would have been passed to ipv6_addr_cmp() (that expects
to operate on the larger "struct sockaddr_in6"), which would result in a
compile-time buffer overflow condition detected by memcmp(). Logically,
this state isn't reachable due to the sa_family assignment two callers
above and the check in compare_netdev_and_ip(). Instead, provide a
compile-time check on sizes so the size-mismatched code will be elided
when inlining. Avoids the following warning from Clang:

../include/linux/fortify-string.h:652:4: error: call to '__read_overflow' declared with 'error' attribute: detected read beyond size of object (1st parameter)
                        __read_overflow();
                        ^
note: In function 'cma_netevent_callback'
note:   which inlined function 'node_from_ndev_ip'
1 error generated.

When the underlying object size is not known (e.g. with GCC and older
Clang), the result of __builtin_object_size() is SIZE_MAX, which will also
compile away, leaving the code as it was originally.
