Good catch. "|| ARM" was probably copied from CAN_RCAR config and I
can confirm CAN-FD controller doesn't exist on R-Car Gen2 and RZ/G2
32bit SoC's (but with a bit of google search RZ/A2M supports CAN-FD I
am not sure if its the same controller tough), but said that there
shouldn't be any harm in replacing  "|| ARM" with "|| COMPILE_TEST"
for both CAN_RCAR_CAN{FD}. What are your thoughts?

Cheers,
Prabhakar
