This reverts commit 1a620a723853a0f49703c317d52dc6b9602cbaa8

and its follow-up fixes for the introduced dependency issues.

commit 1a620a723853 ("can: raw: instantly reject unsupported CAN 
frames")
commit cb2dc6d2869a ("can: Kconfig: select CAN driver infrastructure by 
default")
commit 6abd4577bccc ("can: fix build dependency")
commit 5a5aff6338c0 ("can: fix build dependency")

The entire problem was caused by the requirement that a new network layer
feature needed to know about the protocol capabilities of the CAN devices.
Instead of accessing CAN device internal data structures which caused the
dependency problems a better approach has been developed which makes use of
CAN specific ml_priv data which is accessible from both sides.
