Convert the omap-serial hardirq handler to a threaded IRQ handler. Without
this patch, OMAP boards which use the on-board OMAP UARTs and the
omap-serial driver will not boot to userspace after commit
f3637a5f2e2eb391ff5757bc83fb5de8f9726464 ("irq: Always set IRQF_ONESHOT if
no primary handler is specified"). Enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ reveals
'IRQ handler type mismatch' errors:

It turns out that the omap-serial code used one threaded IRQ
handler[1][2] and one non-threaded IRQ handler[3] that shared the same
IRQ. During the 3.1-rc series, a patch was merged[4] that caused
IRQF_ONESHOT to be set on the threaded handler, but the non-threaded
handler did not have IRQF_ONESHOT set. Since interrupt handlers
that share the same IRQ must also share the presence or absence of
IRQF_ONESHOT[5], this new commit caused a mismatch that prevented the
non-threaded IRQ from registering.
Fix by converting the non-threaded IRQ handler in omap-serial.c to a
threaded IRQ handler. Ideally we would not have to make this type of
change during the -rc series, but the commit that caused this behavior
was itself merged between v3.1-rc2 and v3.1-rc3. In the long term, it
would be good to get rid of the shared IRQ handler hack in
arch/arm/mach-omap2/serial.c.
This change has been boot-tested on OMAP3530 BeagleBoard and
OMAP4430ES2 PandaBoard, and static suspend has been lightly tested on
the BeagleBoard.

the boot failure.
