netlink: move extack setting into validate_nla()
This unifies the code between nla_parse() which sets the bad attribute pointer and an error message, and nla_validate() which only sets the bad attribute pointer. It also cleans up the code for NLA_REJECT and paves the way for nested policy validation, as it will allow us to easily skip setting the "generic" message without any extra args like the **error_msg now, just passing the extack through is now enough. While at it, remove the unnecessary label in nla_parse(). Suggested-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
