The easiest way to get LIN working in Linux is to implement a custom UART driver (or, more precisely, a TTY discipline), and use a level converter to make the UART work with 12V.
On the software side, take a look at slLIN project. Its authors also wrote a paper about it, which may help to understand how it works.
On the hardware side, buy a UART or an RS-232 module and make a 12V level converter for it. Example from the paper above:
