Add the DMA support for uart RX and TX.

Apart from the comments below,

1. How do you deal with transmitting the high-priority XON/XOFF
    characters (port->x_char) which occur with s/w flow control and
    the tty buffers fill up?
2. How do you deal with flow control in general?  IOW, what happens
    when the remote end deasserts your CTS with h/w flow control enabled.
    How does your end deal with sending RTS according to flow control
    conditions?

The UART uses the DMA for RX/TX with the hardware flow control (RTS/CTS) enabled all the time.
If we use the software flow control(XON/XOFF), we should not enable the DMA.
I think i should add more comments about this issue.

For example:
The MX6Q arm2 has two uarts, one with the DMA disabled is used for debug,
the other one with the DMA/RTS.CTS enabled can be used for the Bluetooth.

Why do you need a work struct to deal with DMA?

The uart uses the SDMA (drivers/dma/imx-sdma.c). And the SDMA may schedule out in :
sdma_prep_slave_sg() --> sdma_load_contex() -->sdma_run_channel() .

So i have to add a work struct to prepare and triger the DMA operations.

Callbacks are called from tasklet context, and will have IRQs enabled.
As the port lock is taken from IRQ context, this is waiting for a deadlock
to happen.  Have you run this with lockdep enabled?

This callback is called from IRQ context, with all the IRQ disabled. see:
sdma_int_handler() -->mxc_sdma_handle_channel() --> mxc_sdma_handle_channel_normal()
--> .callback().

So spin_lock() is enough.
