serial: abstraction for 8250 legacy ports

Not every platform that has generic legacy 8250 ports manages to have them
clocked the right way or without errata. Provide a generic interface to
allow platforms to override the default behaviour in a manner that dumps
the complexity in *their* code not the 8250 driver.
