Oliver Hartkopp 1fa17d4ba4 can: omit unneeded skb_clone() calls
The AF_CAN core delivered always cloned sk_buffs to the AF_CAN
protocols, although this was _only_ needed by the can-raw protocol.
With this (additionally documented) change, the AF_CAN core calls the
callback functions of the registered AF_CAN protocols with the original
(uncloned) sk_buff pointer and let's the can-raw protocol do the
skb_clone() itself which omits all unneeded skb_clone() calls for other
AF_CAN protocols.
