can: add private data space for CAN sk_buffs
The struct can_skb_priv is used to transport additional information along with the stored struct can(fd)_frame that can not be contained in existing struct sk_buff elements. can_skb_priv is located in the skb headroom, which does not touch the existing CAN sk_buff usage with skb->data and skb->len, so that even out-of-tree CAN drivers can be used without changes. Btw. out-of-tree CAN drivers without can_skb_priv in the sk_buff headroom would not support features based on can_skb_priv. The can_skb_priv->ifindex contains the first interface where the CAN frame appeared on the local host. Unfortunately skb->skb_iif can not be used as this value is overwritten in every netif_receive_skb() call.
