In commit 20dd3850bcf860561496827b711fa10fecf6e787 "can: Speed up CAN frame
receiption by using ml_priv" the formerly used hlist of receiver lists for
each CAN netdevice has been replaced. 

The hlist content ensured only CAN netdevices to be accessed by the
can_rx_(un)register() functions which accidently dropped away together with
the hlist receiver implementation.

This patch re-introduces the check for CAN netdevices in can_rx_(un)register().

<content type='text'>
this patch removes the hlist that contains the CAN receiver filter lists.
It uses the 'midlayer private' pointer ml_priv and links the filters directly
to the CAN netdevice, which allows to omit the walk through the complete CAN
devices hlist for each received CAN frame.

This patch is tested and does not remove any locking.

<content type='text'>
The generic __sock_create function has a kern argument which allows the
security system to make decisions based on if a socket is being created by
the kernel or by userspace.  This patch passes that flag to the
net_proto_family specific create function, so it can do the same thing.

struct can_proto had a capability field which wasn't ever used.  It is
dropped entirely.

struct inet_protosw had a capability field which can be more clearly
expressed in the code by just checking if sock-&gt;type = SOCK_RAW.

<title>can: fix NOHZ local_softirq_pending 08 warning</title>

<id>481a8199142c050b72bff8a1956a49fd0a75bbe0</id>
<content type='text'>
When using nanosleep() in an userspace application we get a ratelimit warning

NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08

for 10 times.

The echo of CAN frames is done from process context and softirq context only.
Therefore the usage of netif_rx() was wrong (for years).

This patch replaces netif_rx() with netif_rx_ni() which has to be used from
process/softirq context. It also adds a missing comment that can_send() must
no be used from hardirq context.

To ensure a proper handling of CAN frames transported in skbuffs some checks
need to be performed at receive time.

As stated by Michael Olbrich and Luotao Fu BUG_ON() might be to restrictive.
This is right as we can just drop the non conform skbuff and the Kernel can
continue working.

This patch replaces the BUG_ON() with a WARN_ONCE() so that the system remains
healthy but we made the problem visible (once).
