[PATCH v5 05/12] can: slcan: use CAN network device driver API

[Dario Binacchi]

As suggested by commit [1], now the driver uses the functions and the
data structures provided by the CAN network device driver interface.

Currently the driver doesn't implement a way to set bitrate for SLCAN
based devices via ip tool, so you'll have to do this by slcand or
slcan_attach invocation through the -sX parameter:

- slcan_attach -f -s6 -o /dev/ttyACM0
- slcand -f -s8 -o /dev/ttyUSB0

where -s6 in will set adapter's bitrate to 500 Kbit/s and -s8 to
1Mbit/s.
See the table below for further CAN bitrates:
- s0 ->   10 Kbit/s
- s1 ->   20 Kbit/s
- s2 ->   50 Kbit/s
- s3 ->  100 Kbit/s
- s4 ->  125 Kbit/s
- s5 ->  250 Kbit/s
- s6 ->  500 Kbit/s
- s7 ->  800 Kbit/s
- s8 -> 1000 Kbit/s

In doing so, the struct can_priv::bittiming.bitrate of the driver is not
set and since the open_candev() checks that the bitrate has been set, it
must be a non-zero value, the bitrate is set to a fake value (-1U)
before it is called.

Using the rtnl_lock()/rtnl_unlock() functions has become a bit more
tricky as the register_candev() function indirectly calls rtnl_lock()
via register_netdev(). To avoid a deadlock it is therefore necessary to
call rtnl_unlock() before calling register_candev(). The same goes for
the unregister_candev() function.

Changes in v5:
- Update the commit message.
- Restore the use of rtnl_lock() and rtnl_unlock().

Changes in v4:
- Update the commit description.
- Use the CAN_BITRATE_UNKNOWN macro.
- Use kfree_skb() instead of can_put_echo_skb() in the slc_xmit().
- Remove the `if (slcan_devs)' check in the slc_dealloc().

Changes in v3:
- Replace (-1) with (-1U) in the commit description.

Changes in v2:
- Move CAN_SLCAN Kconfig option inside CAN_DEV scope.
- Improve the commit message.
