Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 09/10] can: use __dev_get_by_index instead of dev_get_by_index to find interface

As cgw_create_job() is always under rtnl_lock protection,
__dev_get_by_index() instead of dev_get_by_index() should be used to
find interface handler in it having us avoid to change interface
reference counter.
