Subject: [PATCH 3.2 063/102] can: flexcan: implement workaround for errata
 ERR005829

3.2.64-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Jander <david@...tonic.nl>

commit 25e924450fcb23c11c07c95ea8964dd9f174652e upstream.

This patch implements the workaround mentioned in ERR005829:

    ERR005829: FlexCAN: FlexCAN does not transmit a message that is enabled to
    be transmitted in a specific moment during the arbitration process.

Workaround: The workaround consists of two extra steps after setting up a
message for transmission:

Step 8: Reserve the first valid mailbox as an inactive mailbox (CODE=0b1000).
If RX FIFO is disabled, this mailbox must be message buffer 0. Otherwise, the
first valid mailbox can be found using the "RX FIFO filters" table in the
FlexCAN chapter of the chip reference manual.

Step 9: Write twice INACTIVE code (0b1000) into the first valid mailbox.
