backport: Add genl_callback_extack() function
The struct netlink_callback got a new extack attribute in commit 4a19edb60d02 ("netlink: Pass extack to dump handlers") in kernel 4.20. Use a function instead of directly accessing it to return NULL on older kernel versions, the code should handle NULL. Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de>
