Subject: [PATCH] can: flexcan: fix deadlock when using self wakeup

When suspending, when there is still can traffic on the
interfaces the flexcan immediately wakes the platform again.
As it should :-)
But it throws this error msg:
[ 3169.378661] PM: noirq suspend of devices failed

On the way down to suspend the interface that throws the error
message does call flexcan_suspend but fails to call
flexcan_noirq_suspend.
That means the flexcan_enter_stop_mode is called, but on the way
out of suspend the driver only calls flexcan_resume and skips
flexcan_noirq_resume, thus it doesn't call flexcan_exit_stop_mode.
This leaves the flexcan in stop mode, and with the current driver
it can't recover from this even with a soft reboot, it requires a
hard reboot.
