The updated driver (the one used to create the above log) is using
can_change_state() function. data[1] 40 corresponds to
CAN_ERR_CRTL_ACTIVE, so looks correct? Could it be that the can-utils I
am using is old and not reporting state change?

Tentative v4 driver for reference:

The HI-311x has a INT pin and a STAT pin. The hardware I have has only
the INT pin connected to the processor. If the STAT pin was also
connected, then like you mentioned it could be a much better solution to
use STAT for state changes.

Enabling BUSOFF/ERRP/ERRW bits in STATFE did not generate any interrupts
on the INT pin. Should we make it a requirement that both INT and STAT
pins need to be connected in hardware for the driver to do the error
reporting?

Thanks,
Akshay
