[net-next 0/6] move CAN skb headroom content to skb extensions

[Oliver Hartkopp <socketcan@hartkopp.net>]

CAN bus related skbuffs (ETH_P_CAN/ETH_P_CANFD/ETH_P_CANXL) simply contain
CAN frame structs for CAN CC/FD/XL of skb->len length at skb->data.
Those CAN skbs do not have network/mac/transport headers nor other such
references for encapsulated protocols like ethernet/IP protocols.

To store data for CAN specific use-cases all CAN bus related skbuffs are
created with a 16 byte private skb headroom (struct can_skb_priv).
Using the skb headroom and accessing skb->head for this private data
led to several problems in the past likely due to "The struct can_skb_priv
business is highly unconventional for the networking stack." [1]

This patch set aims to remove the unconventional skb headroom usage for
CAN bus related skbuffs and use the common skb extensions instead.

Oliver Hartkopp (6):
  can: use skb hash instead of private variable in headroom
  can: add CAN skb extension infrastructure
  can: move ifindex to CAN skb extensions
  can: move frame_len to CAN skb extensions
  can: remove private CAN skb headroom infrastructure
  can: gw: use can_gw_hops instead of sk_buff::csum_start
