serial: 8250_mtk: Simplify clock sequencing and runtime PM
The 8250_mtk driver's runtime PM support has some issues: - The bus clock is enabled (through runtime PM callback) later than a register write - runtime PM resume callback directly called in probe, but no pm_runtime_set_active() call is present - UART PM function calls the callbacks directly, _and_ calls runtime PM API - runtime PM callbacks try to do reference counting, adding yet another count between runtime PM and clocks This fragile setup worked in a way, but broke recently with runtime PM support added to the serial core. The system would hang when the UART console was probed and brought up. Tony provided some potential fixes [1][2], though they were still a bit complicated. The 8250_dw driver, which the 8250_mtk driver might have been based on, has a similar structure but simpler runtime PM usage. Simplify clock sequencing and runtime PM support in the 8250_mtk driver. Specifically, the clock is acquired enabled and assumed to be active, unless toggled through runtime PM suspend/resume. Reference counting is removed and left to the runtime PM core. The serial pm function now only calls the runtime PM API.
