can: do not increase tx_bytes statistics for RTR frames
The actual payload length of the CAN Remote Transmission Request (RTR) frames is always 0, i.e. no payload is transmitted on the wire. However, those RTR frames still use the DLC to indicate the length of the requested frame. As such, net_device_stats::tx_bytes should not be increased when sending RTR frames. The function can_get_echo_skb() already returns the correct length, even for RTR frames (c.f. [1]). However, for historical reasons, the drivers do not use can_get_echo_skb()'s return value and instead, most of them store a temporary length (or dlc) in some local structure or array. Using the return value of can_get_echo_skb() solves the issue. After doing this, such length/dlc fields become unused and so this patch does the adequate cleaning when needed. This patch fixes all the CAN drivers. Finally, can_get_echo_skb() is decorated with the __must_check attribute in order to force future drivers to correctly use its return value (else the compiler would emit a warning).
