In case of a resource shortage, i.e. the rx_offload queue will overflow or a skb fails to be allocated (due to OOM), can_rx_offload_offload_one() will call mailbox_read() to discard the mailbox and return an ERR_PTR. However can_rx_offload_irq_offload_timestamp() bails out in the error case. In case of a resource shortage all mailboxes should be discarded, to avoid an IRQ storm and give the system some time to recover. Since can_rx_offload_irq_offload_timestamp() is typically called from a while loop, all message will eventually be discarded. So let's continue on error instead to discard them directly.

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.
