Thanks for implementing this.

Can you take care of the S32G2 which has 2 mailbox IRQs, too? Please in
a separate patch.

My idea was to take the "irq" argument of the IRQ handler and the quirks
and figure out if you are the first or second mailbox IRQ handler.

Convert these

| struct flexcan_priv {
| [...]
| 	u64 rx_mask;
| 	u64 tx_mask;
| [...]
| }

into a struct and put an array of 2 of these structs into "struct
flexcan_priv". Use correct mask array depending on IRQ handler.

regards,
Marc
