net: use struct_group to copy ip/ipv6 header addresses



kernel test robot reported warnings when build bonding module with
make W=1 O=build_dir ARCH=x86_64 SHELL=/bin/bash drivers/net/bonding/:

                 from ../drivers/net/bonding/bond_main.c:35:

This is because we try to copy the whole ip/ip6 address to the flow_key,
while we only point the to ip/ip6 saddr. Note that since these are UAPI
headers, __struct_group() is used to avoid the compiler warnings.
