I briefly browsed the patch and various bits and pieces are missing or
not correctly implemented. Marc already pointed out a few of them:

- I do not find can_put/get_echo_skb functions in the code. How is
  IFF_ECHO supposed to work?

- Support for CAN_CTRLMODE_BERR_REPORTING and do_get_berr_counter()
  seems to be missing.

- Make use of alloc_can_skb() and alloc_can_err_skb().

Wolfgang.
