leon, grcan: semaphore reset count required after flushing

It is also required to use semaphore release instead of flush when stopping
or on BUSOFF/AHBERR condition. Otherwise a task just about to wait
(taking the semaphore) could end up locked because the semaphore count is
still the same.

There was previously a scenario where the semaphore flush would not always make
semaphore obtain to return in case of BUSOFF, AHBERROR or grcan_stop. It has to
do with the rtems_semaphore_flush() not releasing the semaphore but just aborts
any _current_ waiter.
