The driver uses an atomic_t variable: gs_usb:active_channels to keep
track of the number of opened channels in order to only allocate
memory for the URBs when this count changes from zero to one.

However, the driver does not decrement the counter when an error
occurs in gs_can_open(). This issue is fixed by changing the type from
atomic_t to u8 and by simplifying the logic accordingly.

It is safe to use an u8 here because the network stack big kernel lock
(a.k.a. rtnl_mutex) is being hold. For details, please refer to [1].

<title>can: etas_es58x: change opened_channel_cnt's type from atomic_t to u8</title>

<id>f4896248e9025ff744b4147e6758274a1cb8cbae</id>

The driver uses an atomic_t variable: struct
es58x_device::opened_channel_cnt to keep track of the number of opened
channels in order to only allocate memory for the URBs when this count
changes from zero to one.

While the intent was to prevent race conditions, the choice of an
atomic_t turns out to be a bad idea for several reasons:

- implementation is incorrect and fails to decrement
  opened_channel_cnt when the URB allocation fails as reported in
  [1].

- even if opened_channel_cnt were to be correctly decremented,
  atomic_t is insufficient to cover edge cases: there can be a race
  condition in which 1/ a first process fails to allocate URBs
  memory 2/ a second process enters es58x_open() before the first
  process does its cleanup and decrements opened_channed_cnt. In
  which case, the second process would successfully return despite
  the URBs memory not being allocated.

- actually, any kind of locking mechanism was useless here because
  it is redundant with the network stack big kernel lock
  (a.k.a. rtnl_lock) which is being hold by all the callers of
  net_device_ops:ndo_open() and net_device_ops:ndo_close(). c.f. the
  ASSERST_RTNL() calls in __dev_open() [2] and __dev_close_many()
  [3].

The atmomic_t is thus replaced by a simple u8 type and the logic to
increment and decrement es58x_device:opened_channel_cnt is simplified
accordingly fixing the bug reported in [1]. We do not check again for
ASSERST_RTNL() as this is already done by the callers.

No information is deliberately sent in hf-&gt;flags in host -&gt; device
communications, but the open-source candleLight firmware echoes it
back, which can result in the GS_CAN_FLAG_OVERFLOW flag being set and
generating spurious ERRORFRAMEs.

While there also initialize the reserved member with 0.

<title>can: do not increase tx_bytes statistics for RTR frames</title>

<id>cc4b08c31b5c51352f258032cc65e884b3e61e6a</id>
<content type='text'>
The actual payload length of the CAN Remote Transmission Request (RTR)
frames is always 0, i.e. no payload is transmitted on the wire.
However, those RTR frames still use the DLC to indicate the length of
the requested frame.

As such, net_device_stats::tx_bytes should not be increased when
sending RTR frames.

The function can_get_echo_skb() already returns the correct length,
even for RTR frames (c.f. [1]). However, for historical reasons, the
drivers do not use can_get_echo_skb()'s return value and instead, most
of them store a temporary length (or dlc) in some local structure or
array. Using the return value of can_get_echo_skb() solves the
issue. After doing this, such length/dlc fields become unused and so
this patch does the adequate cleaning when needed.

This patch fixes all the CAN drivers.

Finally, can_get_echo_skb() is decorated with the __must_check
attribute in order to force future drivers to correctly use its return
value (else the compiler would emit a warning).

<title>can: do not copy the payload of RTR frames</title>

The actual payload length of the CAN Remote Transmission Request (RTR)
frames is always 0, i.e. no payload is transmitted on the wire.
However, those RTR frames still use the DLC to indicate the length of
the requested frame.

For this reason, it is incorrect to copy the payload of RTR frames
(the payload buffer would only contain garbage data). This patch
encapsulates the payload copy in a check toward the RTR flag.

<title>can: kvaser_usb: do not increase tx statistics when sending error message frames</title>

The CAN error message frames (i.e. error skb) are an interface
specific to socket CAN. The payload of the CAN error message frames
does not correspond to any actual data sent on the wire. Only an error
flag and a delimiter are transmitted when an error occurs (c.f. ISO
11898-1 section 10.4.4.2 "Error flag").

For this reason, it makes no sense to increment the tx_packets and
tx_bytes fields of struct net_device_stats when sending an error
message frame because no actual payload will be transmitted on the
wire.

N.B. Sending error message frames is a very specific feature which, at
the moment, is only supported by the Kvaser Hydra hardware. Please
refer to [1] for more details on the topic.
