I reverted the whole 8250 directory to d99482673f95 ("serial:
mctrl_gpio: Check if GPIO property exisits before requesting it") and
it is somewhat better, but it's not as good as the stock OMAP serial
driver. I get some frame errors and eventually, I get some timeouts,
but it's not as bad. I'll try to implement the RTS and CTS as gpio
pins and change the device tree accordingly. It might shed some light
on the situation.
