[NETLINK]: Remove error pointer from netlink message handler
The error pointer argument in netlink message handlers is used
to signal the special case where processing has to be interrupted
because a dump was started but no error happened. Instead it is
simpler and more clear to return -EINTR and have netlink_run_queue()
deal with getting the queue right.
nfnetlink passed on this error pointer to its subsystem handlers
but only uses it to signal the start of a netlink dump. Therefore
it can be removed there as well.
This patch also cleans up the error handling in the affected
message handlers to be consistent since it had to be touched anyway.
