I agree that container_of() would make it future safe - but I don't
foresee any significant changes to driver specially the arc_uart_port
structure.

Since we are getting a ref to tty - it makes sense to check if the
pointer is not NULL. Alan had pointed to a possible hangup race which
could yield a NULL tty. But I'm not really an expert in serial core to
be sure if at all this will happen - so added the check.

Copy/paste cruft. Empty functions deleted in next ver !
Regarding verify_port, I'm not sure whether it needs to elaborately
check for PORT_UNKNOWN -> PORT_ARC or can we simply continue to return
0. But IMHO the comment in there is right. No ?
