The algorithm is already used successfully by other CAN drivers (e.g. mcp251xfd). Its implementation was kindly suggested to me by Marc Kleine-Budde following a patch I had previously submitted. You can find every detail at https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1422929/. The idea is that after this patch, it will be easier to patch the driver to use the message object memory as a true FIFO.

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 Restructured Text 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.
