[PATCH v2 02/12] can: sun4i_can: call can_change_state() even if cf is NULL

The function can_change_state() can also be called if the allocation
of the skb fails, as it handles the cf parameter when it is null.
Additionally, this ensures that the statistics related to state error
counters (i. e. warning, passive, and bus-off) are updated.
