Yep - Additionally i don't think, that reserving the "7" for CAN_J1939 is a
strong reason for pushing the merge process.

We (will say "the Linux CAN community") all know that J1939 is prepared by
Kurt and that we reserve the "7" proto number for it.

I personally see no reason that someone tries to allocate the "7" without our
joint acknowledge.
