net: introduce CAN specific pointer in the struct net_device

2021-04-07T13:02:28+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4e096a18867a5a989b510f6999d9c6b6622e8f7b ] Since 20dd3850bcf8 ("can: Speed up CAN frame receiption by using ml_priv") the CAN framework uses per device specific data in the AF_CAN protocol. For this purpose the struct net_device->ml_priv is used. Later the ml_priv usage in CAN was extended for other users, one of them being CAN_J1939. Later in the kernel ml_priv was converted to an union, used by other drivers. E.g. the tun driver started storing it's stats pointer. Since tun devices can claim to be a CAN device, CAN specific protocols will wrongly interpret this pointer, which will cause system crashes. Mostly this issue is visible in the CAN_J1939 stack. To fix this issue, we request a dedicated CAN pointer within the net_device struct.
