The rcar_canfd driver supports R-Car Gen3 and RZ/G2 SoC's, update the
description to reflect this.

Not sure we need to make it generic like dropping {1,2,3}/{1,2} and  instead use R-Car and RZ/G SoC's??

Cheers,
Biju

Sounds good. Better make the description more generic instead of updating it
each time a new SoC comes along.

Not introduced by this patch, but the "|| ARM" looks strange to me.
Is this meant for compile-testing? Doesn't the driver compile on all
platforms (it does on m68k), so "|| COMPILE_TEST" is not appropriate?
Is the CAN FD controller present on some Renesas arm32 SoCs (but
not yet supported by this driver)?

Good catch. "|| ARM" was probably copied from CAN_RCAR config and I
can confirm CAN-FD controller doesn't exist on R-Car Gen2 and RZ/G2
32bit SoC's (but with a bit of google search RZ/A2M supports CAN-FD I
am not sure if its the same controller tough), but said that there
shouldn't be any harm in replacing  "|| ARM" with "|| COMPILE_TEST"
for both CAN_RCAR_CAN{FD}. What are your thoughts?

Cheers,
Prabhakar

Thanks for investigating. I knew about R-Car Gen2 and RZ/G1 not having
CAN-FD.

I'd go for "|| COMPILE_TEST".
