ethtool: don't propagate EOPNOTSUPP from dumps
The default dump handler needs to clear ret before returning. Otherwise if the last interface returns an inconsequential error this error will propagate to user space. This may confuse user space (ethtool CLI seems to ignore it, but YNL doesn't). It will also terminate the dump early for mutli-skb dump, because netlink core treats EOPNOTSUPP as a real error.
