Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
Ubuntu normally has CAN bus functionality built in. Doesn't seem to be the case here (PEAK CAN adapter driver and other CAN functionality). The problem is mainly I would love to use WSL2 for work; But CAN support is required.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
I would like the WSL2 Kernel to be built with CAN support enabled to work alongside the USB/IP functionality.
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
I have delved into the depths of the internet and have almost successfully compiled my own Kernel version with these functionalities built in. And though I am fairly technically minded I didn't have the in-depth knowledge to fully work out the hiccups I was having.
**Additional context**

Research direction
Start by examining the WSL2 kernel build configuration and how USB/IP functionality is enabled. Determine where CAN support would be configured and how PEAK CAN adapter support relates to the existing kernel build, then validate the resulting functionality in WSL2.
