The backport of this patch (24e5589791d09214e31335ae2b581c668d4803b7) in
4.19.x makes the driver trigger an abort on an i.MX25 based machine.
If I revert
d5a9ba4324d5 ("can: flexcan: remove not needed struct flexcan_priv::tx_mb and struct flexcan_priv::tx_mb_idx")
24e5589791d0 ("can: flexcan: Always use last mailbox for TX")
on top of v4.19.13 the oops is gone. (I have to add #define
FLEXCAN_TX_MB 63 to the driver though as the next older flexcan patch
(04f985776f04 ("can: flexcan: handle tx-complete CAN frames via
rx-offload infrastructure")) makes use of this symbol but it is only
defined as part of 24e5589791d0. In mainline the order of the commits is
different such that this problem doesn't occur.)
The output with no changes to flexcan on top of 4.19.13 looks as follows:

I have a fix for 4.19.14 that doesn't fit as is on current mainline. I
didn't check if mainline is still affected, but will do so later today.
I will send the fix for 4.19.x as a reply to this mail.
Best regards
Uwe
