From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal at milecki.pl>

After more reviews is seems that blobmsg_for_each_attr() should not be
used when dealing with untrusted data as it reads length from blob data
itself. It means it can't be used in the blobmsg_check_array_len().

Switch back to using __blobmsg_for_each_attr() BUT pass correct length
to it. Calculate it by subtracting header length from blob length.
