Subject: [PATCH] can: can327: Flush tx_work on ldisc .close()

Additionally, remove it from .ndo_stop().

This ensures that the worker is not called after being freed, and that
the UART TX queue remains active to send final commands when the netdev
is stopped.

Thanks to Jiri Slaby for finding this in slcan:

  https://lore.kernel.org/linux-can/20221201073426.17328-1-jirislaby@kernel.org/

A variant of this patch for slcan, with the flush in .ndo_stop() still
present, has been tested successfully on physical hardware:
