Add an hrtimer to MCAN class device. Each MCAN will have its own

Please add a sentence why you introduce polling mode, i.e. there are
SoCs where the M_CAN interrupt is not available on the CPUs (which are
running Linux).

Sure, I can do that, thanks.


The hrtimer will generate a software interrupt every 1 ms. In
hrtimer callback, we check if there is a transaction pending by
reading a register, then process by calling the isr if there is.

Changelog:
v7:
- Clean up m_can_platform.c if/else section after removing poll-interval
- Remove poll-interval from patch description
v6:
- Move hrtimer stop/start function calls to m_can_open and m_can_close to
support power suspend/resume
v5:
- Change dev_dbg to dev_info if hardware interrupt exists and polling
is enabled
v4:
- No changes
v3:
- Create a define for 1 ms polling interval
- Change plarform_get_irq to optional to not print error msg
v2:
- Add functionality to check for 'poll-interval' property in MCAN node
- Add 'polling' flag in driver to check if device is using polling method
- Check for timer polling and hardware interrupt cases, default to
hardware interrupt method
- Change ns_to_ktime() to ms_to_ktime()

Unrelated change. I've send a separate patch to fix the problem.

Sorry about this, this was not intentional.

This might be a racy. Please move the disabling of the hrtimer before
disabling all interrupts. This makes it also symmetric with respect to
m_can_start().

This makes sense.

I think you can move this assignment to m_can_class_register(). We only
need to set the function once.

Great idea!

I think irq will be uninitialized after this change. Although the
compiler doesn't complain :(

Agreed, I did notice this when testing. But is it an issue?


BTW: I think we don't need the "polling" variable in the priv. We can
make use of "irq". "irq" being 0 means use polling.

True, but is using the polling flag easier for the user to read?

EINVAL? Wouldn't ENXIO (No such device or address) be more appropriate than
invalid argument?


Please return the original error code.
