As multiple places EOPNOTSUPP and EINVAL is returned from driver
it becomes difficult to understand the reason only with error code.
With the netlink extack message exact reason will be known and will
aid in debugging.

also, can you submit this patch to net-next and not net please?
it's not really fixing an issue and will help avoid conflicts with
changes we plan on this file.
thanks
