Marc Kleine-Budde e793c724b4 can: mcp251xfd: clarify the meaning of timestamp
The mcp251xfd chip is configured to provide a timestamp with each
received and transmitted CAN frame. The timestamp is derived from the
internal free-running timer, which can also be read from the TBC
register via SPI. The timer is 32 bits wide and is clocked by the
external oscillator (typically 20 or 40 MHz).

To avoid confusion, we call this timestamp "timestamp_raw" or "ts_raw"
for short.

Using the timecounter framework, the "ts_raw" is converted to 64 bit
nanoseconds since the epoch. This is what we call "timestamp".

This is a preparation for the next patches which use the "timestamp"
to work around a bug where so far only the "ts_raw" is used.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
