====================
pull-request: can 2026-03-02

The first 2 patches are by Oliver Hartkopp. The first fixes the
locking for CAN Broadcast Manager op runtime updates, the second fixes
the packet statisctics for the CAN dummy driver.

Alban Bedel's patch fixes a potential problem in the error path of the
mcp251x's ndo_open callback.

A patch by Ziyi Guo add USB endpoint type validation to the esd_usb
driver.

The next 6 patches are by Greg Kroah-Hartman and fix URB data parsing
for the ems_usb and ucan driver, fix URB anchoring in the etas_es58x,
and in the f81604 driver fix URB data parsing, add URB error handling
and fix URB anchoring.

A patch by me targets the gs_usb driver and fixes interoperability
with the CANable-2.5 firmware by always configuring the bit rate
before starting the device.

The last patch is by Frank Li and fixes a CHECK_DTBS warning for the
nxp,sja1000 dt-binding.

Linux kernel
============

The Linux kernel is the core of any Linux operating system. It manages hardware,
system resources, and provides the fundamental services for all other software.

Quick Start
-----------

* Report a bug: See Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst
* Get the latest kernel: https://kernel.org
* Build the kernel: See Documentation/admin-guide/quickly-build-trimmed-linux.rst
* Join the community: https://lore.kernel.org/

Essential Documentation
-----------------------

All users should be familiar with:

* Building requirements: Documentation/process/changes.rst
* Code of Conduct: Documentation/process/code-of-conduct.rst
* License: See COPYING

Documentation can be built with make htmldocs or viewed online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
