This is a bit strange using and we may still have to define other M_CAN_FIFO_DATAx
to avoid the enum value exceeds the defined range.
enum m_can_fifo {
        M_CAN_FIFO_ID = 0,
        M_CAN_FIFO_DLC = 0x4,
        M_CAN_FIFO_DATA0 = 0x8,
        M_CAN_FIFO_DATA1 = 0xc,
	....
        M_CAN_FIFO_DATA15 = 0xc,
};

However, actually we will not use them at all after introducing M_CAN_FIFO_DATA(n).
If that, why we still need define them in enum?

Comparing to this way, why not simply just do as follows:
#define M_CAN_FIFO_ID		0x0
#define M_CAN_FIFO_DLC		0x4
#define M_CAN_FIFO_DATA(n)	(0x8 + (n) << 2)

What do you think?

Does it work?
The dlc is in bytes while m_can_fifo_read is read in words.
