I will use it in this series for the linux-can tree:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20221126162211.93322-4-mailhol.vincent@wanadoo.fr/

If it is a problem to send this as a standalone patch, I will then
just add it to my series and have the patch go through the linux-can
tree.


Yours sincerely,
Vincent Mailhol
