Yes, I think that would be fine, other drivers are doing that already.
IMHO best approach is to not print anything unless skip-sw is set. If
you used netlink's extack capability exclusively it would "just work".
Extack will only carry the error in case offload is requested. Could
you consider using extack or do you have a preference to print into the
logs? You could do both, too.
You can get to extack via f->common->extack.
