Break it up into attributes, please. It's the idiomatic way of dealing
with multiple values these days in netlink. Makes validation,
extensiblility, feature discover etc. etc. much easier down the line.

return ops->ndo_get_eec_state(dev, state, extack);
Even tho it's perfectly fine as is IMO there are bots out there
matching on this pattern so let's not feed them.

Keep the expected path unindented:
if (state->ifindex <= 0)
return -EINVAL;
dev = __dev_get_by_index(net, state->ifindex);
if (!dev)
return -ENODEV;
That said I'm not sure why rtnl_stats_get() checks the ifindex is
positive in the first place (which is what I assumed inspired you).
We can just call __dev_get_by_index() and have it fail AFAICS.
