Subject: [PATCH 3.13 190/212] can: only rename enabled led triggers when changing the netdev name

3.13.11.4 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Oliver Hartkopp <socketcan@...tkopp.net>

commit 45fb4f8d81578e0a17c45c4593a3305afbf7a48b upstream.

Commit a1ef7bd9fce8 ("can: rename LED trigger name on netdev renames") renames
the led trigger names according to the changed netdevice name.

As not every CAN driver supports and initializes the led triggers, checking for
the CAN private datastructure with safe_candev_priv() in the notifier chain is
not enough.

This patch adds a check when CONFIG_CAN_LEDS is enabled and the driver does not
support led triggers.

For stable 3.9+
