In my previous commit 0349b8779cc9 ("sched: add new attr TCA_EXT_WARN_MSG to report tc extact message") I didn't notice the tc action use different enum with filter. So we can't use TCA_EXT_WARN_MSG directly for tc action. Let's add a TCA_ROOT_EXT_WARN_MSG for tc action specifically and put this param before going to the TCA_ACT_TAB nest.
