Will be creating a V2 Patch with the suggested changes.
For the case of n_bytes = 3 would be using DMA_SLAVE_BUSWIDTH_4_BYTES
since that is what
the FIFO driver is doing as well while writing to the FIFO register in
the core driver:
...
        if (dws->n_bytes == 1)
                txw = *(u8 *)(dws->tx);
        else if (dws->n_bytes == 2)
                txw = *(u16 *)(dws->tx);
        else
                txw = *(u32 *)(dws->tx);
...

For the case of sanity checking of dma capability, I am planning to
add it to can_dma function so that it
defaults to a non-dma mode if the DMA controller is not capable of
satisfying the bits/word requirement.

Thanks
