I've figured out a way to retrieve a frequency value via netlink:
By passing the lora0 ifindex in as attribute, nllora can look up the
net_device by index, and then via struct lora_dev_priv call into hooks
that the device drivers can optionally implement. :)

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/afaerber/linux-lora.git/tree/net/lora/netlink.c?h=lora-next

Tested with HIMO-01M module.
The command might need an additional channel attribute for SX130x.

The corresponding nltest program (using libnl-genl) is here:
https://github.com/afaerber/lora-modules/blob/master/nltest.c

Cheers,
Andreas
