Merge branch 'move-can-skb-headroom-content-to-skb-extensions'
Oliver Hartkopp says:
====================
move CAN skb headroom content to skb extensions
CAN bus related skbuffs (ETH_P_CAN/ETH_P_CANFD/ETH_P_CANXL) simply contain
CAN frame structs for CAN CC/FD/XL of skb->len length at skb->data. Those
CAN skbs do not have network/mac/transport headers nor other such
references for encapsulated protocols like ethernet/IP protocols.
To store data for CAN specific use-cases all CAN bus related skbuffs are
created with a 16 byte private skb headroom (struct can_skb_priv). Using
the skb headroom and accessing skb->head for this private data led to
several problems in the past likely due to "The struct can_skb_priv
business is highly unconventional for the networking stack." [1]
This patch set aims to remove the unconventional skb headroom usage for CAN
bus related skbuffs and use the common skb extensions instead.
