Wolfgang is of course right, but we're nonetheless investigating what
seems to be a real problem, and what Pankaj had seen was a red herring.

So currently what I suspect is going on, when I am running canfdtest
between 2 LS1028A-RDB boards, is that the DUT is reordering frames on
TX.

See, for example, the screenshot below:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rOeW3aXh3kPh1CJ39lCccRfjFz5JN5I6/view?usp=sharing

I have added trace points to the end of the flexcan_start_xmit function,
which print the entire skb, and the frames appear to be written to the
TX message buffer in the correct order. They are seen, however, in the
incorrect order on the wire.

Thanks,
