This patch removes the old method of allocating the per device protocol specific memory via a netdevice_notifier. This had the drawback, that the allocation can fail, leading to a lot of null pointer checks in the code. This also makes the live cycle management of this memory quite complicated. This patch switches from the allocating the struct can_dev_rcv_lists in a NETDEV_REGISTER call to using the dev->ml_priv, which is allocated by the driver since the previous patch.
