From: Zhang Changzhong <zhangchangzhong@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 3accbfdc36130282f5ae9e6eecfdf820169fedce upstream. If can_init_proc() fail to create /proc/net/can directory, can_remove_proc() will trigger a warning: WARNING: CPU: 6 PID: 7133 at fs/proc/generic.c:672 remove_proc_entry+0x17b0 Kernel panic - not syncing: panic_on_warn set ... Fix to return early from can_remove_proc() if can proc_dir does not exists.
