Currently, some CAN drivers support hardware timestamping, some do
not. But userland has no method to query which features are supported
(aside maybe of getting RX messages and observe whether or not
hardware timestamps stay at zero).
The canonical way for a network driver to advertised what kind of
timestamping it supports is to implement ethtool_ops::get_ts_info().
This patch only targets the CAN drivers which *do not* support
hardware timestamping. For each of those CAN drivers, implement the
get_ts_info() using the generic ethtool_op_get_ts_info().
This way, userland can do:
| $ ethtool --show-time-stamping canX
to confirm the device timestamping capacities.
N.B. the drivers which support hardware timestamping will be migrated
in separate patches.

This patch adds a private flag to the flexcan driver to switch the
"rx-rtr" setting on and off.
"rx-rtr" on - Receive RTR frames. (default)
The CAN controller can and will receive RTR frames.
On some IP cores the controller cannot receive RTR
frames in the more performant "RX mailbox" mode and
will use "RX FIFO" mode instead.
"rx-rtr" off - Waive ability to receive RTR frames. (not supported on all IP cores)
This mode activates the "RX mailbox mode" for better
performance, on some IP cores RTR frames cannot be
received anymore.
The "RX FIFO" mode uses a FIFO with a depth of 6 CAN frames.
The "RX mailbox" mode uses up to 62 mailboxes.
