Lukas Wunner b4a29b9480 serial: 8250: Move Alpha-specific quirk out of the core
struct uart_8250_port contains mcr_mask and mcr_force members whose
sole purpose is to work around an Alpha-specific quirk.  This code
doesn't belong in the core where it is executed by everyone else,
so move it to a proper ->set_mctrl callback which is used on the
affected Alpha machine only.

The quirk was introduced in January 1995:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/history/history.git/diff/drivers/char/serial.c?h=1.1.83

The members in struct uart_8250_port were added in 2002:
https://git.kernel.org/history/history/c/4524aad27854

The quirk applies to non-PCI Alphas and arch/alpha/Kconfig specifies
"select FORCE_PCI if !ALPHA_JENSEN".  So apparently the only affected
machine is the EISA-based Jensen that Linus was working on back then:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=wj1JWZ3sCrGz16nxEj7=0O+srMg6Ah3iPTDXSPKEws_SA@mail.gmail.com/

Up until now the quirk is not applied unless CONFIG_PCI is disabled.
If users forget to do that or run a generic Alpha kernel, the serial
ports aren't usable on Jensen.  Avoid by confining the quirk to
CONFIG_ALPHA_JENSEN instead of !CONFIG_PCI.  On generic Alpha kernels,
auto-detect at runtime whether the quirk needs to be applied.
