Yes, problem is fixed with 1.3.0.
And yes, firmware can be updated.
What kind of warning message are you talking about? Do you mean that 
peak_pci could dev_warn() a text msg to inform about the fact that the 
current FW is able to be upgraded?

If yes, since peak_pci prints a single info line per CAN channel, what 
would you prefer?

- the same warning about the old FW version, for each candev, something 
like:

[ 2200.129168] peak_pci 0000:05:01.0: can0 at 
reg_base=0xffffc90000678000 cfg_base=0xffffc90000676000 irq=22 FW=1.2.0 
should be updated
[ 2200.129307] peak_pci 0000:05:01.0: can1 at 
reg_base=0xffffc90000678400 cfg_base=0xffffc90000676000 irq=22 FW=1.2.0 
should be updated

- or a single warning msg for the hardware device, something like:

[ 2200.129168] peak_pci 0000:05:01.0: Warning: FW v1.2.0 needs a 
workaround; update is available
[ 2200.129168] peak_pci 0000:05:01.0: can0 at 
reg_base=0xffffc90000678000 cfg_base=0xffffc90000676000 irq=22
[ 2200.129307] peak_pci 0000:05:01.0: can1 at 
reg_base=0xffffc90000678400 cfg_base=0xffffc90000676000 irq=22

?
