Return EPROBE_DEFER if Regulator returns EPROBE_DEFER

If the Flexcan driver is built into kernel and a regulator is used to
enable the CAN transceiver, the Flexcan driver may not use the regulator.

When initializing the Flexcan device with a regulator defined in the device
tree, but not initialized, the regulator subsystem returns EPROBE_DEFER, hence
the Flexcan init fails.

The solution for this is to return EPROBE_DEFER if regulator is not initialized
and wait until the regulator is initialized.

I tested this Patch on a self made Freescale Vybrid VF610 board we developed in
the Formula Student Team of the UaS RheinMain. I think this Patch is working on
all other SoC with a Flexcan Controller. I tested it with the head rev of
linux-can and linux 3.19.2.

Since this is my first patch for the Linux Kernel, please tell me if
there are formal
failures.
