I don't think we should go ahead with this patch. I'm pretty sure
this is AM335 specific problem, or at least limited to only few
platforms. And I don't think we should take any more "BUG" flags.
We should add hooks like tx_dma and rx_dma to struct uart_8250_dma so
that the probe drivers can replace serial8250_tx_dma and
seria8250_rx_dma, like I think Alan already suggested.
Let's keep serial8250_tx_dma/rx_dma as the default, and not add any
quirks to them. Only if there is a very common case should it be
handled in those. The case of RX req needing to be sent before data in
FIFO maybe one of those, but I'm no sure.
