Currently, if you set SERIAL8250_CONFIG_RUNTIME_UARTS to 0, you cannot get any working ports. This change will enable serial8250_register_port to successfully register a port even if SERIAL8250_CONFIG_RUNTIME_UARTS is 0. If you need legacy ports, you will set the SERIAL8250_CONFIG_RUNTIME_UARTS to the number of legacy ports you need created at boot time.
