Subject: can: make the number of echo skb's configurable

From: Wolfgang Grandegger <[email-masked]>
Date: Fri, 09 Oct 2009 10:09:10 +0200

This patch allows the CAN controller driver to define the number of echo
skb's used for the local loopback (echo), as suggested by Kurt Van
Dijck, with the function:

  struct net_device *alloc_candev(int sizeof_priv,
                                  unsigned int echo_skb_max);

The CAN drivers have been adapted accordingly. For the ems_usb driver,
as suggested by Sebastian Haas, the number of echo skb's has been
increased to 10, which improves the transmission performance a lot.
