m_can_chip_config function is called from m_can open.

Configuring RAM init every time we open the CAN instance is not needed, I think only once during the probe is enough. 

If message RAM init failed then fifo Transmit and receive will fail and there will be no communication. So there is no point to "open and Configure CAN chip".
