The PTX flavour canutils[1] have a useful utility for generating a
sequence of CAN frames with an incrementing payload and checking such a
sequence for missed and reordered frames.
Recently, it has helped finding a regression in the kernel pfifo_fast
qdisc, which led to reordered frames[2].
To bring the utility to a greater audience, import the current state[3]
of it into the linux-can set of utilities.

Alan sent a pull request to update the README.md with some markdown tweaks
and a SocketCAN logo. Good idea!
After creating a SocketCAN logo PNG in the can-logos repository we can
reference the PNG inside the linux-can organization.
A license file needs to be added too - but this has to be discussed on the
mailing list first.
