[PATCH v4 1/5] serial: 8250_dw: select port setup through platform data

Select feature discovery and DMA attachment through a platform-data setup
callback. The generic callback probes the optional registers and attaches
DMA when a FIFO size is available. Integrations with a fixed configuration
can supply their own setup before the port is registered.

Replace skip_autocfg with the Octeon setup selection. On 64-bit builds,
Octeon continues to skip optional-register probing while retaining its DMA
setup; on 32-bit builds it retains the generic setup. Keep generic setup
for devices without matched platform data as well.
