In the next patches, the software/virtual drivers (slcan, v(x)can) will depend on drivers/net/can/dev/skb.o. This patch changes the scope of the can-dev module to include the above mentioned drivers. To do so, we reuse the menu "CAN Device Drivers" and turn it into a configmenu using the config symbol CAN_DEV (which we released in previous patch). Also, add a description to this new CAN_DEV menuconfig. The symbol CAN_DEV now only triggers the build of skb.o. For this reasons, all the macros from linux/module.h are deported from drivers/net/can/dev/dev.c to drivers/net/can/dev/skb.c. Finally, drivers/net/can/dev/Makefile is adjusted accordingly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
