ethnl_req_get_phydev() is used to lookup a phy_device, in the case an
ethtool netlink command targets a specific phydev within a netdev's
topology.
It takes as a parameter a const struct nlattr *header that's used for
error handling :
if (!phydev) {
NL_SET_ERR_MSG_ATTR(extack, header,
"no phy matching phyindex");
return ERR_PTR(-ENODEV);
}
In the notify path after a ->set operation however, there's no request
attributes available.
The typical callsite for the above function looks like:
phydev = ethnl_req_get_phydev(req_base, tb[ETHTOOL_A_XXX_HEADER],
info->extack);
So, when tb is NULL (such as in the ethnl notify path), we have a nice
crash.
It turns out that there's only the PLCA command that is in that case, as
the other phydev-specific commands don't have a notification.
This commit fixes the crash by passing the cmd index and the nlattr
array separately, allowing NULL-checking it directly inside the helper.

PLCA is a PHY-specific command. Instead of targeting the command
towards dev->phydev, use the request to pick the targeted PHY.

The ETHTOOL_A_PLCA_ENABLED data type is u8. But while parsing the
value from the attribute, nla_get_u32() is used in the plca_update_sint()
function instead of nla_get_u8(). So plca_cfg.enabled variable is updated
with some garbage value instead of 0 or 1 and always enables plca even
though plca is disabled through ethtool application. This bug has been
fixed by parsing the values based on the attributes type in the policy.

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.

Revert a wrong fix that was done during the review process. The
intention was to substitute "if(ret < 0)" with "if(ret)".
Unfortunately, the intended fix did not meet the code.
Besides, after additional review, it was decided that "if(ret < 0)"
was actually the right thing to do.
