Even though the CAN netlayer only deals with CAN netdevices, the 
netlayer interface to the userspace and to the device layer should 
perform some sanity checks.

This patch adds several sanity checks that mainly prevent userspace apps 
to send broken content into the system that may be misinterpreted by 
some other userspace application.

Both copy_to_ and _from_user return the number of bytes, that failed to
reach their destination, not the 0/-EXXX values.

I found some places, that erroneously return the value obtained from
the copy_to_user() call: if some amount of bytes were not able to get
to the user (this is what this one returns) the proper behavior is to
return the -EFAULT error, not that number itself.

Introduce per-net_device inlines: dev_net(), dev_net_set().
Without CONFIG_NET_NS, no namespace other than &init_net exists.
Let's explicitly define them to help compiler optimizations.
