The can_nrf device driver incorrectly passes its own device driver pointer to a call to clock_control_get_rate() to get the rate of the auxpll. The actual device driver which should be passed to clock_control_get_rate() is the auxpll. Without this fix, the call jumps to the can_nrf_api and returns garbage (unfortunately it does not hardfault, which is why this issue has not been discovered yet).
