Subject: can: gs_usb: fix return value of the "set_bittiming" callback

From: Wolfgang Grandegger <[email protected]>

commit d5b42e6607661b198d8b26a0c30969605b1bf5c7 upstream.

The "set_bittiming" callback treats a positive return value as error! For that reason "can_changelink()" will quit silently after setting the bittiming values without processing ctrlmode, restart-ms, etc.
