can: dev: fix deadlock reported after bus-off
[ Upstream commit 9abefcb1aaa58b9d5aa40a8bb12c87d02415e4c8 ]
A timer was used to restart after the bus-off state, leading to a
relatively large can_restart() executed in an interrupt context,
which in turn sets up pinctrl. When this happens during system boot,
there is a high probability of grabbing the pinctrl_list_mutex,
which is locked already by the probe() of other device, making the
kernel suspect a deadlock condition [1].
To resolve this issue, the restart_timer is replaced by a delayed
work.
