The idea behind series 6c1f5146b214 ("Merge patch series "can: raw: better approach to instantly reject unsupported CAN frames"") is to set the capabilities of a CAN device (CAN-CC, CAN-FD, CAN-XL, and listen only) [1] and, based on these capabilities, reject unsupported CAN frames in the CAN-RAW protocol [2]. This works perfectly for CAN devices configured in CAN-FD or CAN-XL mode. CAN devices with static CAN control modes define their capabilities via can_set_static_ctrlmode() -> can_set_cap_info(). CAN devices configured by the user space for CAN-FD or CAN-XL set their capabilities via can_changelink() -> can_ctrlmode_changelink() -> can_set_cap_info(). However, in commit 166e87329ce6 ("can: propagate CAN device capabilities via ml_priv"), the capabilities of CAN devices are not initialized. This results in CAN-RAW rejecting all CAN frames on devices directly after ifup if the user space has not changed the CAN control mode. Fix this problem by setting the default capabilities to CAN-CC in alloc_candev_mqs() as soon as the CAN specific ml_priv is allocated.
