This is a prerequisite for transitioning the m_can driver to rx-offload,
which works best with TX and RX timestamps.
The timestamps provided by M_CAN are 16-bit, timed according to the
nominal bit timing, and may be prescaled by a multiplier up to 16. We
choose the highest prescalar so that the timestamp wraps every 2^20 bit
times, or 209 ms at a bus speed of 5 Mbit/s. Timestamps will have a
precision of 16 bit times.
