The MCP2515 can be used with an SPI clock of up to 10 MHz. Set the
limit accordingly to prevent any performance issues caused by the
really low clock speed of 100 kHz.
Could you share some testing result of this change?
Without this change, receiving CAN messages on the board beyond a
certain bitrate will cause overrun errors (see 'ip -det -stat link show
can0').

With this fix, receiving messages on the bus works without any overrun
errors for bitrates up to 1 MBit.

It's really an optimization rather than fix, isn't it?
It removes the arbitrarily low limit on the SPI frequency, that was
caused by a typo in the original dts. As the usage of the CAN bus is
seriously affected by this I would consider it a fix. But if you think
otherwise, feel free to remove the Fixes tag.
Put all these good information into commit log, and I will be happy to
take it as a fix.
