this is a, probably too late, pull request for v4.1.

Oliver Hartkopp fixed a bug in the generic CAN frame handling code, which may
lead to loss of CAN frames. It was introduced during v4.1 development.

Please queue via net/master if possible, net-next/master otherwise. I've added
stable on Cc, just in case.
Pulled, thanks.
the patch "can: fix loss of CAN frames in raw_rcv" was sent to stable on
2015-06-21 but unfortunately did not find its way into 4.1.1 :-(

The upstream commit is:

http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=36c01245eb8046c16eee6431e7dbfbb302635fa8

which slipped into 4.2 at merge window opening time.

So it just got lost in the stable queue somehow.
No, it's still there.  I don't queue up patches for a stable release
until they have shown up in a public release from Linus.  So in this
case, it will be elgible to be in a stable kernel after 4.2-rc1 is out.

Unless you tell me otherwise, so if you want this in the next 4.1-stable
release, I can queue it up now.

thanks,
