I thought the fact that we were touching a core driver to fix what
seemed like an XO issue was too intrusive.

I've updated it with proper header and attached.

Set proper console speed on resume if console suspend is disabled
    
Commit b5b82df6, from May 2007, breaks no_console_suspend on the OLPC
XO laptop. Basically what happens is that upon returning from resume,
serial8250_resume_port() will reconfigure the port for high speed
mode and all console output will be garbled, making debug of the
resume path painful. This patch modifies uart_resume_port() to
reset the port to the state it was in before we suspended.
