Subject: [PATCH -next] serial: etraxfs-uart: Fix crash

Since commit 7d8c70d8048c ("serial: mctrl-gpio: rename init function"),
crisv32 either do not build or crash as follows.

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference

The function call in the etraxfs-uart driver was not renamed,
possibly due to interference with commit 7b9c5162c182 ("serial:
etraxfs-uart: use mctrl_gpio helpers for handling modem signals").

It might make sense to merge this patch into the original patch if possible.
