If register_candev() fails, a previous netif_napi_add() needs to be undone.
Add the missing netif_napi_del() in the error handling path.

What about this path:
free_candev(ndev) -> free_netdev() -> netif_napi_del()

Ok, thanks for the review,

so in fact this is the netif_napi_del() call in ctucan_platform_remove() that can be removed instead.

Harmless, but would be more consistent.
I'll send a patch for that.
