Now that the compiler is performing printf checking, we get the warning:

net/tipc/netlink_compat.c: In function ‘tipc_nl_compat_link_stat_dump’:
net/tipc/netlink_compat.c:591:39: warning: format ‘%s’ expects argument of type ‘char *’, but argument 3 has type ‘void *’ [-Wformat=]

      |     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      |     |
      |     void *

There is no nla_string(), so cast to a char *.
