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.

Current code for RSS_GET ethtool command includes netlink attributes
in reply message to user space even if they are null. Added checks
to include netlink attribute in reply message only if a value is
received from driver. Drivers might return null for RSS indirection
table or hash key. Instead of including attributes with empty value
in the reply message, add netlink attribute only if there is content.

Add netlink based support for "ethtool -x <dev> [context x]"
command by implementing ETHTOOL_MSG_RSS_GET netlink message.
This is equivalent to functionality provided via ETHTOOL_GRSSH
in ioctl path. It sends RSS table, hash key and hash function
of an interface to user space.
This patch implements existing functionality available
in ioctl path and enables addition of new RSS context
based parameters in future.
