Marc Kleine-Budde b53be254d3 can: dev: can_restart(): don't crash kernel if carrier is OK
[ Upstream commit fe5c9940df ]

During testing, I triggered a can_restart() with the netif carrier
being OK [1]. The BUG_ON, which checks if the carrier is OK, results
in a fatal kernel crash. This is neither helpful for debugging nor for
a production system.

[1] The root cause is a race condition in can_restart() which will be
fixed in the next patch.

Do not crash the kernel, issue an error message instead, and continue
restarting the CAN device anyway.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
