Currently, the CAN netlink interface provides no easy ways to check the capabilities of a given controller. The only method from the command line is to try each CAN_CTRLMODE_ individually to check whether the netlink interface returns an -EOPNOTSUPP error or not (alternatively, one may find it easier to directly check the source code of the driver instead...) Here, we introduce a way to directly report the supported features as well as the statically enabled features. The first patch of the series only does some clean up. The second patch is the real thing. The last patch contains the needed modification to the uapi headers and is only there for convenience.
