Ok, it seems it is possible to test CAN without actual can hardware
using loopback:

ip link set can0 up type can bitrate 125000 loopback on
ifconfig can0 up
candump can0 &
cansend can0 "123#DEADBEEF"

Moreover, it seems that previous two patches do the trick. Packets are
now echoed as expected. (Ok, small question is "why twice", but I
guess that's just CAN...?)

root at sockit:~# ip link set can0 up type can bitrate 125000 loopback on
c_can_platform ffc00000.d_can can0: setting BTR=1c31 BRPE=0000
root at sockit:~# ifconfig can0 up
root at sockit:~# candump can0 &
root at sockit:~# cansend can0 "123#DEADBEEF"
  can0  123   [4]  DE AD BE EF
  can0  123   [4]  DE AD BE EF
root at sockit:~# 

Best regards,
