[PATCH V3] tty: serial: imx.c: Reset UART before activating interrupts

If the UART has been in use before this driver was loaded, IRQs might be
active and get fired as soon as we set the handler, which will crash
in the spin_lock_irqsave(&sport->port.lock, flags) because port.lock is
not initialized until the port is added at the end of probe.

Changes from V2:
 - Also enable clk_ipg since it is not entirely clear if it is needed or not.

Changes from V1:
 - Enable peripheral clock before attempting reset.
