When printing the soft interface table the number of entries in the softif neigh list are first being counted and a fitting buffer allocated. After that the softif neigh list gets locked again and the buffer printed - which has the following two issues:

For one thing, the softif neigh list might have grown when reacquiring the rcu lock, which results in writing outside of the allocated buffer. For another, only 30 Bytes per soft interface neighbor are allocated, but up to 31 Bytes get copied into the buffer which leads to a buffer overflow again if the vid needs more than one digit.

Furthermore 31 Bytes are not enough for printing an entry with a vid of more than 2 digits.

The manual buffering is unnecessary, we can safely print to the seq directly during the rcu_read_lock().
