Note: I am using a small test app + driver located at [0] for the
problem description. serco is a driver whose write function dispatches
to the serial controller. sertest is a user-mode app that writes n bytes
to the serial console using the serco driver.

On the current mainline and -next branches, I have noticed that the
serial output on many of our Tegra boards is corrupted and so
parsing the serial output is failing.
Before this change the serial console would appear as follows ...

Bisecting is pointing to this commit. Let me know if there are any
tests I can run. Otherwise we may need to disable this at least
for Tegra.
The test is bogus:
use_fifo = (up->capabilities & UART_CAP_FIFO) &&
port->fifosize > 1 &&
(serial_port_in(port, UART_FCR) & UART_FCR_ENABLE_FIFO)
FCR is write only. Reading it, one gets IIR contents.
