[PATCH 1/2] serial: Provide capability to disable modem status interrupts in 8250 driver

[Michael Williamson]

Certain SOC platforms utilize the 8250 serial UART core that do not provide
valid modem control lines (in particular, CTS).  A mechanism is needed to
allow platforms to configure the 8250 driver to disable modem status interrupts.
Add a new UPF_NO_MSR flag and use it to check for the condition.

This patch was tested using a MityDSP-L138F platform having a UART CTS pin
connected to a clock signal (and configured, via pinmux, as a clock input
for another peripheral function).

Tested against linux-davinci tree.
Checked that patch against davinci-next was successful.
