Gen4 has 8 channels (GENMASK(16, 23)
G3E has 6 channels  (GENMASK(16, 21)
V4M has 4 channels  (GENMASK(16, 19)
V3H_2 has 3 channels (GENMASK(16,18)
All other SoCs has 2 channels (GENMASK(16,17)

So you mean, I should replace RCANFD_GERFL_EEF0_7 with a

Generic one RCANFD_GERFL_EEF(x) GENMASK(16, 16 + (x) - 1) to handle
this differences

Where x is the number of supported channels(info->max_channels)

and then use

FIELD_PREP(RCANFD_GERFL_EEF(x), gpriv->channels_mask)

Cheers,
Biju
