ethtool: netlink: always pass genl_info to .prepare_data

We had a number of bugs in the past because developers forgot
to fully test dumps, which pass NULL as info to .prepare_data.
.prepare_data implementations would try to access info->extack
leading to a null-deref.

Now that dumps and notifications can access struct genl_info
we can pass it in, and remove the info null checks.

It seems I missed that most ethnl_parse_header_dev_get() callers
declare an on-stack struct ethnl_req_info, and that they simply call
dev_put(req_info.dev) when about to return.

Add ethnl_parse_header_dev_put() helper to properly untrack
reference taken by ethnl_parse_header_dev_get().

ethtool: trim policy tables

Since ethtool uses strict attribute validation there's no need
to initialize all attributes in policy tables. 0 is NLA_UNSPEC
which is going to be rejected. Remove the NLA_REJECTs.

Similarly attributes above maxattrs are rejected, so there's
no need to always size the policy tables to ETHTOOL_A_..._MAX.

ethtool: wire up get policies to ops

Wire up policies for get commands in struct nla_policy of the ethtool
family. Make use of genetlink code attr validation and parsing, as well
as allow dumping policies to user space.

For every ETHTOOL_MSG_*_GET:
- add 'ethnl_' prefix to policy name
- add extern declaration in net/ethtool/netlink.h
- wire up the policy & attr in ethtool_genl_ops[].
- remove .request_policy and .max_attr from ethnl_request_ops.

Obviously core only records the first "layer" of parsed attrs
so we still need to parse the sub-attrs of the nested header
attribute.

v2:
- merge of patches 1 and 2 from v1
- remove stray empty lines in ops
- also remove .max_attr

ethtool: fix reference leak in ethnl_set_privflags()

Andrew noticed that some handlers for *_SET commands leak a netdev
reference if required ethtool_ops callbacks do not exist. One of them is
ethnl_set_privflags(), a simple reproducer would be e.g.

ip link add veth1 type veth peer name veth2
ethtool --set-priv-flags veth1 foo on
ip link del veth1

Make sure dev_put() is called when ethtool_ops check fails.
