[media] staging: media: lirc: Replace timeval with ktime_t in lirc_serial.c



'struct timeval tv' is used to get current time.
'static struct timeval lasttv' is used to get last interrupt time.

32-bit systems using 'struct timeval' will break in the year 2038,
so we have to replace that code with more appropriate types.
This patch changes the lirc_serial.c file of media: lirc to use
ktime_t.

ktime_get() is  better than using do_gettimeofday(),
because it uses the monotonic clock. ktime_sub is used
to subtract two ktime variables. The check to test time
going backwards is also removed. Intialization to static
variable is also removed. ktime_to_us() is used to convert
ktime_t to microsecond value. deltv is changed to delkt, a
ktime_t type varibale from long to assign the ktime_sub value
directly. ktime_compare is used to compare delkt with 15
seconds, which is changed to a nanosecond value by using
ktime_set().

Build tested it.
