1. Added "$(objpfx)tst-cmsghdr: $(libdl)" to socket/Makefile since we still
need $(libdl) in RHEL8.
2. Included stddef.h in socket/tst-cmsghdr-skeleton.c because it uses NULL.
commit 9c443ac4559a47ed99859bd80d14dc4b6dd220a1

socket: Check lengths before advancing pointer in CMSG_NXTHDR
The inline and library functions that the CMSG_NXTHDR macro may expand
to increment the pointer to the header before checking the stride of
the increment against available space. Since C only allows incrementing
pointers to one past the end of an array, the increment must be done
after a length check. This commit fixes that and includes a regression
test for CMSG_FIRSTHDR and CMSG_NXTHDR.
The Linux, Hurd, and generic headers are all changed.
Tested on Linux on armv7hl, i686, x86_64, aarch64, ppc64le, and s390x.
