Hi!

This is an updated patch series for the Kvaser CAN/USB devices:

1- Extra patches are now added to the series. Most importantly
patch #1 which fixes a critical `sleep in atomic context' bug
in the current upstream driver. Patch #2 fixes a corruption in
the kernel logs, also affecting current upstream driver. Patch
#4 was originally USBCan-II only, but since it's a generic fix,
it's now retrofitted to the Leaf-only upstream driver first.

2- The series has been re-organized so that patches #1 -> #4
inclusive can go to linux-can/origin, while the rest can move
to -next.

3- There are some important updates regarding the USBCan-II
error counters, and how really erratic their heaviour is. All
the new details are covered at the bottom of this URL:

4- Attached below is the new candump traces. Now
`back-to-error-active' states appear _if_ the hardware was
kind enough and decreased the error counters appropriately.
The earlier code did not recognize the error counters going
down, thus the `back-to-error-active' transitions did not
appear.
For patches 5-7 I'm waiting for an Acked by Andri.
Applied to can-next, it's available as can-next-testing in the
linux-can-next repo.

Marc.
