For now I'm considering to add the check to uart_dtr_rts in
serial_core.c. However, given the access to struct
tty_port_operations, I think it's also possible to use a
driver-specific hook if it makes more sense. The question is - where
exactly does it belong?

Through hooking set_mctrl and get_mctrl and using the suggested
helpers from serial_mctrl_gpio.c. Though I had to introduce
uart_port.get_mctrl to serial_core.h (with set_mctrl already being
there) and serial8250_do_get_mctrl to serial_8250.h (same here,
serial8250_do_set_mctrl is already there).
