can: netlink: can_changelink(): allow disabling of automatic restart

commit 8e93ac5 upstream.

Since the commit c1f3f97 ("can: netlink: can_changelink(): fix NULL
pointer deref of struct can_priv::do_set_mode"), the automatic restart
delay can only be set for devices that implement the restart handler struct
can_priv::do_set_mode. As it makes no sense to configure a automatic
restart for devices that doesn't support it.

However, since systemd commit 13ce5d4632e3 ("network/can: properly handle
CAN.RestartSec=0") [1], systemd-networkd correctly handles a restart delay
of "0" (i.e. the restart is disabled). Which means that a disabled restart
is always configured in the kernel.

On systems with both changes active this causes that CAN interfaces that
don't implement a restart handler cannot be brought up by systemd-networkd.

Solve this problem by allowing a delay of "0" to be configured, even if the
device does not implement a restart handler.
