[PATCH] serial: keep the DTR setting for serial console.
with reverting "x86, serial: convert legacy COM ports to platform devices", we will have the serial console before the port is probled again.
uart_add_one_port==>uart_configure_port==>set_mcttrl(port, 0) will clear the DTR setting by uart_set_options(). then I will lose my output from serial console again.
So try to keep DTR in uart_configure_port()
