You can create proper files for the kernel from the SVN trunk using the
script strip-src.
$ cd trunk
$ ./strip-src -m -i -v 2.6.31 \
kernel/2.6/include/socketcan/can/platform/mcp251x.h \
> $KERNELDIR/include/linux/can/platform
$ ./strip-src -m -i -v 2.6.31 \
kernel/2.6/drivers/net/can/mcp251x.c \
> $KERNELDIR/drivers/net/can
Furthermore, you need to update the Kconfig and Makefile as well, but
that trivial.
