Marc Kleine-Budde 7637d01eee can: netlink: can_changelink(): allow disabling of automatic restart 
commit 8e93ac51e4 upstream.

Since the commit c1f3f9797c ("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.

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 reStructuredText 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.
