I wanted to keep the patches spartan and not lose track of the conversion
subtleties in embelishments like extack messages which can be added later
and do not require nearly as much attention to the flow before and after.
I'm afraid if I say "yes" here to the request to add extack to hellcreek
I'm opening the door to further requests to do that for other DSA drivers,
and sadly I do not have infinite time to fulfill them. Plus, I would
like to finalize the conversion tree-wide by the end of this development
cycle.

Even if I were to follow through with your request, I would do so in a
separate patch. I've self-reviewed this patch prior to posting it, and I
was already of the impression that it is pretty busy as it is.
