The flexcan driver has function pointer transceiver_switch defined in
flexcan_platform_data for platform codes to hook up their transceiver
switch implementation.  However this does not cope with device tree
probe.

It's been observed that platforms mostly use gpios to control the
switch of flexcan transceiver, like enable and standby.  The patch
adds transceiver switch gpios support into flexcan driver, so that
platforms booting from device tree can just define properties
phy-enable-gpios and phy-standby-gpios to have flexcan driver control
the gpios.
Hmm, ideally these things are not so suitable to be put in controller driver
since they're platform specific.
However i also did not have better idea now.

One rough thought is maybe create a supported can phy libs and hook to controller
dynamically?

I checked mx28 evk, it seems the phy only has a STB gpio and shared by both CAN0&CAN1.
I wonder the CAN1 probe may fail here.
