Will take into account if later we also need implement this struct.

Should be OK according to IP guys feedbacks.

I am checking layerscape's CAN section:

There is no ECC section in LS1021A 
https://www.nxp.com/products/processors-and-microcontrollers/arm-processors/layerscape-multicore-processors/layerscape-1021a-dual-core-communications-processor-with-lcd-controller:LS1021A?tab=Documentation_Tab


ECC section in LX2160A, also contains the same NOTE as i.MX8MP.

Hi @Pankaj Bansal, could you please also have a check?
