[PATCH 00/15] can: m_can: Optimizations for tcan and peripheral chips

[Markus Schneider-Pargmann]

Hi,

this series is aimed at optimizing the driver code for tcan chips and
more generally for peripheral m_can chips.

I did different things to improve the performance:
- Reduce the number of SPI transfers.
- Reduce the number of interrupts.
- Enable use of FIFOs.

I am working with a tcan4550 in loopback mode attached to a beaglebone
black. I am currently working on optimizing the receive path as well
which will be submitted in another series once it is done.

Best,
Markus
