This is great. Looks like requeued skbs bypassing the qdisc were indeed
the problem. I ran my stress test for 4:30 hours (7.7 million CAN frames)
and all were received in the same order as canfdtest enqueued them in
the socket.

I'll let the test run some more, just thought I'd let you know that
things are looking good so far. I'll leave you a Tested-by when you
submit the final version of the patch as non-RFC.
