Picking up the patch from Serhey Popovych (commit 191cdb3822e5df6b3c8,
"veth: Be more robust on network device creation when no attributes").
When the peer name attribute is not provided the former implementation tries
to register the given device name twice ... which leads to -EEXIST.
If only one device name is given apply an automatic generated and valid name
for the peer.

Add a jump target so that a bit of exception handling can be better reused
at the end of this function.
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

CAN FD capable CAN interfaces can handle (classic) CAN 2.0 frames too.
New users usually fail at their first attempt to explore CAN FD on
virtual CAN interfaces due to the current CAN_MTU default.
Set the MTU to CANFD_MTU by default to reduce this confusion.
If someone *really* needs a 'classic CAN'-only device this can be set
with the 'ip' tool with e.g. 'ip link set vcan0 mtu 16' as before.

Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops->ndo_init(). However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.
Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor().
The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.
netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.
netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.
Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().
This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.
If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit(). But
it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor().
This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.
However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev->destructor() will not be.
Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.
Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.
Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().
netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for
free_netdev().
netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().
Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit()
and netdev->priv_destructor().
And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

Similar to the virtual ethernet driver veth, vxcan implements a
local CAN traffic tunnel between two virtual CAN network devices.
See Kconfig entry for details.
