PATCH v3 1/1 can: Unify droping of invalid tx skbs and netdev stats

As suggested by Marc and Wolfgang here is the v3 version:

To prevent the CAN drivers to operate on invalid socketbuffers the skbs are now checked and silently dropped at the xmit-function consistently.

Also the netdev stats are consistently using the CAN data length code (dlc) for [rx|tx]_bytes now.

Why are you not using the new helper function in vcan_tx()?

Why are you not using the new helper function in vcan_tx()?

I just wanted the vcan driver keep off including "include/linux/can/dev.h" which is intended for 'real' CAN hardware.

As the vcan software devices do not need the bitrate-setting and skb echo handling from the driver library for real CAN devices, this inline function would be the only reason to include ".../dev.h"

But i don't have a strong preference to do it like this. Do you think i should change it to used the defined inline function?

Regards,
Oliver

Yes, less copies of the same code less bugs.

Yes, for the sake of consistency.
