I'm using ip link up/down to test open/close(). It's may not ready so fast.
but the maximum retry is only 1 for test 10000 times.

Sorry, I had inverse the mean of ASSERT_RTNL(). It like you said.
    f81604_probe() not held rtnl_lock.
    ip set terminator will held rtnl_lock.

Due to f81604_set_termination() will called by f81604_probe() to
initialize, it may need mutex in
situation as following:

User is setting can0 terminator when f81604_probe() complete generate
can0 and generating can1.
So IMO, the mutex may needed.

This device can't support DLC > 8. It's only support 0~8.
