When building with clang, via:
make LLVM=1 -C tools/testing/selftest
...clang warns that "a variable sized type not at the end of a struct or
class is a GNU extension".
These cases are not easily changed, because they involve structs that
are part of the API. Fortunately, however, the tests seem to be doing
just fine (specifically, neither affected test runs any differently with
gcc vs. clang builds, on my test system) regardless of the warning. So,
all the warning is doing is preventing a clean build of selftests/net.
Fix this by suppressing this particular clang warning for the
selftests/net suite.
