Not to the one register. From the functional point of view the same signal is
set up twice: once per UART register, once per GPIO pins.

More likely

static inline int serial8250_MCR_to_TIOCM(int mcr)
{
int tiocm = 0;

if (mcr & ...)
tiocm |= ...;
...

return tiocm;
}

static inline int serial8250_TIOCM_to_MCR(int tiocm)
{
... in a similar way ...
}

No macros, please.
