Yes I know but some of those become unreadable if I break them apart.

But if you want me to break them I can do it.

For instance
	struct m_can_plat_priv *priv = (struct m_can_plat_priv *)m_can_class->device_data;

will become

	struct m_can_plat_priv *priv =
				(struct m_can_plat_priv *)m_can_class->device_data;

Ack.  This change will grow this patch as s/priv/cdev is used 250x
