As I already said, I expected "bt->sjw" to be always 0 when
can_calc_bittiming() is called. But the software somehow allows to
preset "bt->sjw", which is not intended as the help of the ip utility shows:

 $ ip link set can0 type can help
   Usage: ip link set DEVICE type can
       [ bitrate BITRATE [ sample-point SAMPLE-POINT] ] |
       [ tq TQ prop-seg PROP_SEG phase-seg1 PHASE-SEG1
         phase-seg2 PHASE-SEG2 [ sjw SJW ] ]

I actually hesitate to extend can_calc_bittiming(). I suggest using an
external tool to calculate proper bit-timing parameters and set them
with "ip link set DEVICE type can tq ...".
