Subject: [PATCH v2 04/12] serial: xilinx_uartps: Use helper function hrtimer_update_function()

The field 'function' of struct hrtimer should not be changed directly, as
the write is lockless and a concurrent timer expiry might end up using the
wrong function pointer.

Switch to use hrtimer_update_function() which also performs runtime checks
that it is safe to modify the callback.
