Lets change the example so others don't propagate the problem further.

Since there doesn't seem to be a define one could use in the user space
linux/netlink.h (?), but there are comments in the example code in the
manpage, how about also including a brief comment to the effect that
using 8192 bytes will avoid message truncation problems on platforms
with a large PAGE_SIZE?
/* avoid msg truncation on > 4096 byte PAGE_SIZE platforms */
or something like that.
