serial: Z85C30: avoid a hang at console switch-over
Changes to the generic console support code that happened a while ago introduced a scenario where the initial console is used in parallel with the final console during a brief period when switching between the two is in progress. During that time a message about the switch-over is printed. With some combinations of chips, firmware and drivers, such as the Zilog Z85C30 SCC used with the DECstation, a hang may happen because the firmware used for the initial console may not expect the state of the chip after it has been initialised by the driver. This is not a bug in the firmware, as some registers it would have to examine are write-only. This is a workaround for the Z85C30 which reuses the power-management callback to keep the transmitter of the line associated with the console enabled. It reflects the consensus reached in a discussion a while ago. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.
