Looks good, minor nits.

Let's avoid the typedefs. Instead of taking a pointer to the op take a
pointer to the ops struct in seg6_local_lwtunnel_build_state() etc.

This is impossible, right?

no need for err, just use return directly.

if (!ops->build_state)
return 0;
return ops->build_state(...);

that's the normal behavior for a kernel function, comment is
unnecessary IMO

The function is called destroy_attrs, call the label out_destroy_attrs,
or err_destroy_attrs.

no need for empty lines on error paths
