Subject: [PATCH] can: etas_es58x: do not send disable channel command if device is unplugged

When turning the network interface down, es58x_stop() is called and
will send a command to the ES58x device to disable the channel
c.f. es58x_ops::disable_channel().

However, if the device gets unplugged while the network interface is
still up, es58x_ops::disable_channel() will obviously fail to send the
URB command and the driver emits below error message:

  es58x_submit_urb: USB send urb failure: -ENODEV

Check the usb device state before sending the disable channel command
in order to silence above error message.

Update the documentation of es58x_stop() accordingly.

The check being added in es58x_stop() is:

  	if (es58x_dev->udev->state >= USB_STATE_UNAUTHENTICATED)

This is just the negation of the check done in usb_submit_urb()[1].

[1] usb_submit_urb(), verify usb device's state.

As far as I know, there doesn't seem to be an helper function to check
udev->state values. If anyone is aware of such helper function, let me
know..
