Merge branch 'fixes-for-3.6' of git://gitorious.org/linux-can/linux-can

Marc Kleine-Budde says:

====================
here's a fix intended for the v3.6 release cycle. Oliver noticed and
fixed that the flags definition for the new canfd_frame contains
redundant and confusing information.

* defined bits for canfd_frame.flags
*
* As the default for CAN FD should be to support the high data rate in the
* payload section of the frame (HDR) and to support up to 64 byte in the
* data section (EDL) the bits are only set in the non-default case.
* Btw. as long as there's no real implementation for CAN FD network driver
* these bits are only preliminary.
* The use of struct canfd_frame implies the Extended Data Length (EDL) bit to
* be set in the CAN frame bitstream on the wire. The EDL bit switch turns
* the CAN controllers bitstream processor into the CAN FD mode which creates
* two new options within the CAN FD frame specification:
*
* RX: NOHDR/NOEDL - info about received CAN FD frame
* ESI - bit from originating CAN controller
* TX: NOHDR/NOEDL - control per-frame settings if supported by CAN controller
* ESI - bit is set by local CAN controller
* Bit Rate Switch - to indicate a second bitrate is/was used for the payload
* Error State Indicator - represents the error state of the transmitting node
*
* As the CANFD_ESI bit is internally generated by the transmitting CAN
* controller only the CANFD_BRS bit is relevant for real CAN controllers when
* building a CAN FD frame for transmission. Setting the CANFD_ESI bit can make
* sense for virtual CAN interfaces to test applications with echoed frames.
