MikroE CAN SPI Click on PocketBeagle?

I'm curious if anyone has gotten the CAN SPI Click working with the
PocketBeagle?

I want to use the Macchina M2 with the PocketBeagle [0] and the
MCP2515 is wired to SPI0 [1]. I thought a Device Tree overlay for the
CAN SPI Click would be a helpful reference.

Note: I'm a bit confused by the product documentation for the 3.3V
version of the SPI CAN Click has the MCP2515. The product page [2]
lists SN65HVD230 but the manual PDF shows MCP2515.

It seems like the 5V version [3] is definitely a MCP2515, but I think
that may not work with the PocketBeagle?

Thanks!
Drew

  Why would you need a DTO for a board that uses SPI for communication?
Won't the regular SPI device tree entries work?

  That may need level shifters; something like

I am thinking that there will need to be device tree entries to
trigger the mcp251x to load and have the correct properties for the
MCP2515. Something like this dts that was created for the BeagleBone
Black:

TXB0104 Bi-Directional Level Shifter [TXB0104] : ID 1875 : $3.50 : Adafruit Industries, Unique & fun DIY electronics and kits

Thanks for the suggestion.
