It should be just *one* enabler of building can-dev-ko

And CAN_DEV is another enabler that would build the skb stuff from 
CAN_DEV_SW too (but also the netlink stuff).

That's what I meant with "some Makefile magic" which is then building 
the can-dev.ko with the required features depending on CAN_DEV_SW, 
CAN_DEV, CAN_DEV_RX_OFFLOAD, CAN_CALC_BITTIMING, etc

Best,
