2025-05-06devlink: avoid param type value translationsJiri Pirko
Assign DEVLINK_PARAM_TYPE_* enum values to DEVLINK_VAR_ATTR_TYPE_* to ensure the same values are used internally and in UAPI. Benefit from that by removing the value translations.

2025-05-06devlink: define enum for attr types of dynamic attributesJiri Pirko
Devlink param and health reporter fmsg use attributes with dynamic type which is determined according to a different type. Currently used values are NLA_*. The problem is, they are not part of UAPI. They may change which would cause a break. To make this future safe, introduce a enum that shadows NLA_* values in it and is part of UAPI. Also, this allows to possibly carry types that are unrelated to NLA_* values.

2024-04-22devlink: extend devlink_param *set pointerMateusz Polchlopek
Extend devlink_param *set function pointer to take extack as a param. Sometimes it is needed to pass information to the end user from set function. It is more proper to use for that netlink instead of passing message to dmesg.
