From b615385657557ff2fab59ac54969d04995fd5a29 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kurt Van Dijck Date: Tue, 18 Dec 2012 18:50:56 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] can: export a safe netdev_priv wrapper for candev In net_device notifier calls, it was impossible to determine if a CAN device is based on candev in a safe way. This patch adds such test in order to access candev storage from within those notifiers.
