[PATCH v8 5/5] can: m_can: Support higher speed CAN-FD bitrates

[Faiz Abbas]

From: Franklin S Cooper Jr <fcooper@xxxxxx>

During test transmitting using CAN-FD at high bitrates (> 2 Mbps)
would fail. Scoping the signals I noticed that only a single bit
was being transmitted and with a bit more investigation realized the
actual MCAN IP would go back to initialization mode automatically.

It appears this issue is due to the MCAN needing to use the Transmitter
Delay Compensation Mode with the correct value for the transmitter delay
compensation offset (tdco). What impacts the tdco value isn't 100% clear
but to calculate it you use an equation defined in the MCAN User's Guide.

The user guide mentions that this register needs to be set based on clock
values, secondary sample point and the data bitrate. One of the key
variables that can't automatically be determined is the secondary
sample point (ssp). This ssp is similar to the sp but is specific to this
transmitter delay compensation mode. The guidelines for configuring
ssp is rather vague but via some CAN test it appears for DRA76x that
putting the value same as data sampling point works.

The CAN-CIA's "Bit Time Requirements for CAN FD" paper presented at
the International CAN Conference 2013 indicates that this TDC mode is
only needed for data bit rates above 2.5 Mbps. Therefore, only enable
this mode when the data bit rate is above 2.5 Mbps.
