[PATCH v2 07/11] spi: use helper for safer setting of driver_override

Use a helper for seting driver_override to reduce amount of duplicated
code.

Remove also "const" from the definition of spi_device.driver_override,
because it is not correct.  The SPI driver already treats it as
dynamic, not const, memory.
