To initialize hrtimer on stack, hrtimer_init_on_stack() needs to be called
and also hrtimer::function must be set. This is error-prone and awkward to
use.
Introduce hrtimer_setup_on_stack() which does both of these things, so that
users of hrtimer can be simplified.
The new setup function also has a sanity check for the provided function
pointer. If NULL, a warning is emitted and a dummy callback installed.
hrtimer_init_on_stack() will be removed as soon as all of its users have
been converted to the new function.
