[patch 4/8] 8250 uart driver for KGDB

[Tom Rini]

Cc: Russell King <rmk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
This adds an 8250 uart driver for KGDB and adds a hook into 8250.c to
unregister a port based on the IRQ, serial8250_release_irq().  We use
serial8250_unregister_port() to do the real work here, however.  Note
that we can't use unregister_port in kgdb_8250.c since we don't know
what the 'port' is, in 8250 terms, only the IRQ.  The other change is
that we have SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS always be defined if KGDB_8250.
