can: remove false statement about 1:1 mapping between DLC and length
The CAN-FD section of can.rst still states that there is a 1:1 mapping between the Classical CAN DLC and its length. This is only true for the DLC values up to 8. Beyond that point, the length remains at 8. For reference, the mapping between the CAN DLC and the length is given in below table [1]: DLC value CBFF and CEFF FBFF and FEFF [decimal] [byte] [byte] ---------------------------------------------- 0 0 0 1 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 4 5 5 5 6 6 6 7 7 7 8 8 8 9 8 12 10 8 16 11 8 20 12 8 24 13 8 32 14 8 48 15 8 64 Remove the erroneous statement. Instead just state that the length of a Classical CAN frame ranges from 0 to 8.
