The function can_calc_tdco() directly retrieves can_priv from the net_device and directly modifies it. This is annoying for the upcoming patch. In drivers/net/can/dev/netlink.c:can_changelink(), the data bittiming are written to a temporary structure and memcpyed to can_priv only after everything succeeded. In the next patch, where we will introduce the netlink interface for TDC parameters, we will add a new TDC block which can potentially fail. For this reason, the data bittiming temporary structure has to be copied after that to-be-introduced TDC block. However, TDC also needs to access data bittiming information. We change the prototype so that the data bittiming structure is passed to can_calc_tdco() as an argument instead of retrieving it from priv. This way can_calc_tdco() can access the data bittiming before it gets memcpyed to priv.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
