Subject: [PATCH] drivers/net: hamradio/yam: Convert timers to use
 timer_setup()

In preparation for unconditionally passing the struct timer_list pointer to
all timer callbacks, switch to using the new timer_setup() and from_timer()
to pass the timer pointer explicitly. Initialization was entirely missing.
