can: netlink: can_changelink(): allow disabling of automatic restart
commit
8e93ac51e4c6dc399fad59ec21f55f2cfb46d27c upstream.
Since the commit
c1f3f9797c1f ("can: netlink: can_changelink(): fix NULL
pointer deref of struct can_priv::do_set_mode"), the automatic restart
delay can only be set for devices that implement the restart handler struct
can_priv::do_set_mode. As it makes no sense to configure a automatic
restart for devices that doesn't support it.
However, since systemd commit
13ce5d4632e3 ("network/can: properly handle
CAN.RestartSec=0") [1], systemd-networkd correctly handles a restart delay
of "0" (i.e. the restart is disabled). Which means that a disabled restart
is always configured in the kernel.
On systems with both changes active this causes that CAN interfaces that
don't implement a restart handler cannot be brought up by systemd-networkd.
Solve this problem by allowing a delay of "0" to be configured, even if the
device does not implement a restart handler.
