[PATCH v3 05/12] OMAP: Serial: Hold console lock for console usage.

Acquire console lock before enabling and writing to console-uart
to avoid any recursive prints from console write.
for ex:
--> printk
--> uart_console_write
--> get_sync
--> printk from omap_device enable
--> uart_console write
Use RPM_SUSPENDING check to avoid below scenario during bootup
As during bootup console_lock is not available.
--> uart_add_one_port
--> console_register
--> console_lock
--> console_unlock
--> call_console_drivers (here yet console_lock is not released)
--> uart_console_write
