xdp: use netlink extended ACK reporting
This series is an attempt to make XDP more user friendly by
enabling exploiting the recently added netlink extended ACK
reporting to carry messages to user space.
David Ahern's iproute2 ext ack patches for ip link are sufficient
to show the errors like this:
Error: nfp: MTU too large w/ XDP enabled
Where the message is coming directly from the driver. There could
still be a bit of a leap for a complete novice from the message
above to the right settings, but it's a big improvement over the
standard "Invalid argument" message.
v1/non-rfc:
- add a separate macro in patch 1;
- add KBUILD_MODNAME as part of the message (Daniel);
- don't print the error to logs in patch 1.
