I think it should be even more simple.

When you enter the current Kconfig page of "CAN Device Drivers" every
selection of vcan/vxcan/slcan should directly select CAN_DEV_SW.

I'm a bit lost - what would CAN_DEV_SW do?

It should be just *one* enabler of building can-dev-ko

If it enables can_dropped_invalid_skb(), then the HW drivers would also
need to depend on CAN_DEV_SW directly or indirectly, or am I missing
something?

And CAN_DEV is another enabler that would build the skb stuff from CAN_DEV_SW too (but also the netlink stuff).

That's what I meant with "some Makefile magic" which is then building the can-dev.ko with the required features depending on CAN_DEV_SW, CAN_DEV, CAN_DEV_RX_OFFLOAD, CAN_CALC_BITTIMING, etc

Best,
