Subject: [PATCH stable 3.11+] can: bcm: add skb destructor

From: Oliver Hartkopp <[email-masked]>

Commit 376c7311bdb6 (net: add a temporary sanity check in skb_orphan())
leads to a BUG in can_put_echo_skb() when skb_orphan() is executed.
When skbuffs created automatically in bcm_can_tx() in softirq (netrx, timer)
and userspace context the precise timing has to be met. A sock wmem accouting
is pointless for this use case.

This patch introduces an empty skb destructor like in commit 072017b41e49
(net: sctp: Add rudimentary infrastructure to account for control chunks)
to make the cyclic transmission of CAN frames work again on real CAN
netdevices. Virtual CAN interfaces do not need skb_orphan().
