[PATCH 0/6] can: c_can: add support to 64 messages objects

[Dario Binacchi]

The D_CAN controller supports up to 128 messages. Until now the driver
only managed 32 messages although Sitara processors and DRA7 SOC can
handle 64.

The series was tested on a beaglebone board.

Note:
I have not changed the type of tx_field (belonging to the c_can_priv
structure) to atomic64_t because I think the atomic_t type has size
of at least 32 bits on x86 and arm, which is enough to handle 64
messages.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-can&m=139746476821294&w=2 reports the results
of tests performed just on x86 and arm architectures.
