Unlike NL_SET_ERR_* macros, nl_set_extack_cookie_u64() and
nl_set_extack_cookie_u32() helpers do not check extack argument for null
and neither do their callers, as syzbot recently discovered for
ethnl_parse_header().
Instead of fixing the callers and leaving the trap in place, add check of
null extack to both helpers to make them consistent with NL_SET_ERR_*
macros.
v2: drop incorrect second Fixes tag

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
