[PATCH net 2/2] can: bittiming: fix bitrate error calculation on unsigned operands

can_calc_bittiming() rates each candidate against the requested bitrate
with:

	bitrate_error = abs(bt->bitrate - bitrate);

Both operands are unsigned int, so the subtraction wraps instead of
becoming negative, and abs() resolves an unsigned int argument to its
int branch. A wrapped difference is therefore reinterpreted as a small
positive value instead of the large error it actually represents.

A requested bitrate far above anything the controller can reach then
passes the CAN_CALC_MAX_ERROR gate. On a dummy_can device with a 160 MHz
clock, requesting 4294967294 bps reports an error of 0.01%, configures
415584 bps and returns success to userspace, where -EINVAL is expected.

Use abs_diff(), which subtracts the smaller operand from the larger one
and keeps the whole comparison unsigned.
