Welcome back on the mailing list, hope you had some nice
holidays!
Thanks was really nice, good weather, 1000km of cycling and hanging
around in Vienna. :D
And also thanks a lot for your support over the last
few months on my other series to introduce the TDC netlink
interface :)
The pleasure is on my side, working with you!

The statically enabled features of a CAN controller can be retrieved
using below formula:

| u32 ctrlmode_static = priv->ctrlmode & ~priv->ctrlmode_supported;

As such, there is no need to store this information. This patch remove
the field ctrlmode_static of struct can_priv and provides, in
replacement, the inline function can_get_static_ctrlmode() which
returns the same value.

A condition sine qua non for this to work is that the controller
static modes should never be set in can_priv::ctrlmode_supported. This
is already the case for existing drivers, however, we added a warning
message in can_set_static_ctrlmode() to check that.
Please make the can_set_static_ctrlmode to return an error in case of a
problem. Adjust the drivers using the function is this patch, too.
I didn't do so initially because this is more a static
configuration issue that should only occur during
development. Nonetheless, what you suggest is really simple.

I will just split the patch in two: one of the setter and one for
the getter and address your comments.
Fine with me. Most important thing is, that the kernel compiles after
each patch.

regards,
Marc
