Maybe we should not use this trick and just malloc() a struct of the
intended size, however:

 - the code below does a similar thing, doing it differently for ethtool
   watcher is confusing.

 - the NMTeamLinkWatcher is a union which cannot alter its type. In no
   case is it correct to access the fields of the wrong union type. By
   allocating a smaller chunk, valgrind might catch such bugs.
   Also, NMTeamLinkWatcher's definition is private to the C source file,
   in no case must anybody assume that the rest of the buffer actually
   exists.

Hence, workaround the warning by suppressing it.
