Marc Kleine-Budde ffd956eef6 can: introduce CAN midlayer private and allocate it automatically
This patch introduces the CAN midlayer private structure ("struct
can_ml_priv") which should be used to hold protocol specific per device
data structures. For now it's only member is "struct can_dev_rcv_lists".

The CAN midlayer private is allocated via alloc_netdev()'s private and
assigned to "struct net_device::ml_priv" during device creation. This is
done transparently for CAN drivers using alloc_candev(). The slcan, vcan
and vxcan drivers which are not using alloc_candev() have been adopted
manually. The memory layout of the netdev_priv allocated via
alloc_candev() will looke like this:

  +-------------------------+
  | driver's priv           |
  +-------------------------+
  | struct can_ml_priv      |
  +-------------------------+
  | array of struct sk_buff |
  +-------------------------+

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
