The CAN bus protocol specifies 5 CAN error types:

- Bit Error [Transmitter]
- Bit Stuffing Error [Receiver]
- Form Error [Receiver]
- ACK Error (Acknowledgment) [Transmitter]
- CRC Error (Cyclic Redundancy Check) [Receiver]

The patch also adds the corresponding counters to the statistics. Since
each device/driver can determine which of these errors has occurred, why
not export this information along with the more general counters?
