In both can_rcv(), and canfd_rcv(), when skb->len = 0, cfd->len (which is uninitialized) is accessed by pr_warn_once(). Performing the validation check for cfd->len separately, after the validation check for skb->len is done, resolves this issue in both instances, without compromising the degree of detail provided in the log messages.
