This driver supports UART-DM HW on MSM platforms. It uses the on
chip DMA to drive data transfers and has optional support for UART
power management independent of Linux suspend/resume and wakeup
from Rx.
The driver was originally developed by Google. It is functionally
equivalent to the version available at:
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=kernel/experimental.git
the differences being:
1) Remove wakelocks and change unsupported DMA API.
2) Replace clock selection register codes by macros.
3) Fix checkpatch errors and add inline documentation.
4) Add runtime PM hooks for active power state transitions.
5) Handle error path and cleanup resources if required.

lh7a40x has only been receiving updates for updates to generic code.
The last involvement from the maintainer according to the git logs was
in 2006. As such, it is a maintainence burden with no benefit.
This gets rid of two defconfigs.

The serial drivers are really just tty drivers, so move them to
drivers/tty/ to make things a bit neater overall.
This is part of the tty/serial driver movement proceedure as proposed by
Arnd Bergmann and approved by everyone involved a number of months ago.
