[PATCH net v4 1/1] net: introduce CAN specific pointer in the struct net_device

Since 20dd3850bcf8 ("can: Speed up CAN frame receiption by using ml_priv") the CAN framework uses per device specific data in the AF_CAN protocol. For this purpose the struct net_device->ml_priv is used. Later the ml_priv usage in CAN was extended for other users, one of them being CAN_J1939.
