This patch fixes the use of plain integers instead of __u32 in a struct
that is visible from kernel space and user space. As this change is user
visible this patch also updates the CAN version to 20071227.
Thanks to Sam Ravnborg for pointing out the wrong plain int usage.
It applies on the current net-2.6.25 tree.
The types are exactly the same size regardless of anything.
There is no reason to make such a big fuss about this, changing the
CAN version etc.
Also, since CAN has never shown up in a released kernel, there is
nothing to be incompatible with.
The CAN stuff is also available in the 'SocketCAN' SVN for older 2.6
Kernels and i backported the latest code to Kernel 2.4 two weeks ago as
some people still use it. As a change in bcm.h is user visable i just
wanted to freeze the latest version of the header files into a
consistent CAN version for Mainline, older 2.6 and 2.4 Kernels. That was
the reason for creating version 20071227 *before* it hits a released Kernel.
Thanks
Oliver
