Devlink commands which implements the dumpit callback may return error. The netlink function netlink_dump() sends the errno value as the payload of the message, while answering user space with NLMSG_DONE. To enable receiving errno value for dumpit commands we have to check for it in the message. If it is a negative value then the dump returned an error so we should set errno accordingly and check for ext_ack in case it was set.
