Subject: [PATCH] can: c_can: Do basic c_can configuration _before_ enabling
 the interrupts

Hi all,

I ran into some trouble while testing the SocketCAN driver for the BOSCH
C_CAN controller. The interface is not correctly initialized, if I put
some CAN traffic on the line, _while_ the interface is being started
(which means: the interface doesn't come up correcty, if there's some RX
traffic while doing 'ifconfig can0 up').

The current implementation enables the controller interrupts _before_
doing the basic c_can configuration. I think, this should be done the
other way round.

The patch below fixes things for me.
