commit7b12c8189aupstream. This patch revert commit7da11ba5c5("can: dev: __can_get_echo_skb(): print error message, if trying to echo non existing skb") After introduction of this change we encountered following new error message on various i.MX plattforms (flexcan): | flexcan 53fc8000.can can0: __can_get_echo_skb: BUG! Trying to echo non | existing skb: can_priv::echo_skb[0] The introduction of the message was a mistake because priv->echo_skb[idx] = NULL is a perfectly valid in following case: If CAN_RAW_LOOPBACK is disabled (setsockopt) in applications, the pkt_type of the tx skb's given to can_put_echo_skb is set to PACKET_LOOPBACK. In this case can_put_echo_skb will not set priv->echo_skb[idx]. It is therefore kept NULL. As additional argument for revert: The order of check and usage of idx was changed. idx is used to access an array element before checking it's boundaries.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
