Thanks for pointing out the issues!  For my defence, all the
existing code of ip/iplink_can.c shares the exact same issues and
I just repeated those without using my brain...

I just sent a new v2 which fixes your remarks on both the
existing code and the new code introduced in my patch.

There is no print_u32 in iproute2. I guess you meant print_uint(). :)


Yours sincerely,
