Subject: [PATCH net/stable] can bcm: fix incomplete tx_setup fix

The commit aabdcb0b553b9c9547b1a506b34d55a764745870 ("can bcm: fix tx_setup
off-by-one errors") fixed only a part of the original problem reported by
Andre Naujoks. It turned out that the original code needed to be re-ordered
to reduce complexity and to finally fix the reported frame counting issues.

Signed-off-by: Oliver Hartkopp <socketcan@...tkopp.net>

@Andre: I checked the changes (which make the code much clearer now) against
your test program and some of mine i modified to test all flags like
STARTTIMER, SETTIMER, TX_ANNOUNCE in different configurations. Please double
check with your setup and send a Tested-by: if it is ok for you.

@Dave: Again sorry for this second patch. The first patch looked sane and
fixed the reported issue - but obviously not the whole problem :-(
