isotp_rcv() separates Classic CAN from CAN FD by skb->len alone:

	if (skb->len != so->ll.mtu)
		return;

	cf = (struct canfd_frame *)skb->data;

A CAN XL frame with cxl->len 4 is CAN_MTU bytes, so it passes, and is then
read as a canfd_frame whose len comes out of canxl_frame.flags: at least
0x80.

Of the paths that follow, only the flow control one uses that length
without bounding it first, so check_pad() walks to 255 over a 16-byte
frame and the caller reports EBADMSG on an unrelated socket.

bcm_rx_handler(), j1939_can_recv(), can_can_gw_rcv() and raw_rcv() check
the frame type here, and can_dropped_invalid_skb() switches on
skb->protocol on the transmit side. isotp_rcv() is the gap.

Fixes: fb08cba12b52 ("can: canxl: update CAN infrastructure for CAN XL frames")
