Sorry for the missing code. It will be checked in tx_work().
If nct6694_write_msg() for CMD10 returns an error related to CAN_Deliver,
I will add error handling in the next patch.

I will move the code that needs to confirm the completion of TX transmission
to tx_work().

In tx_work(), CMD2 CAN_Event's TX_EVT will first confirm TX_FIFO_EMPTY,
ensuring transmission is complete.
