The rx_dma() callback (omap_8250_rx_dma) accesses UART_IER. This
register is modified twice by each console write
(serial8250_console_write()) under the port lock. However, not
all calls to the rx_dma() callback are under the port lock.

Add the missing port locking around rx_dma() callback calls. Add
lockdep notation to the omap_8250_rx_dma().

Note that this is not fixing a real problem because:

1. Currently DMA is forced off for 8250_omap consoles.

2. The serial devices are resumed before console printing is enabled.

However, adding this locking allows for clean locking semantics
for the rx_dma() callback so that lockdep can be used to identify
possible problems in the future. It also simplifies synchronization
of UART_IER in general by not needing to rely on implementation
details such as 1 and 2.
