Not for caching; it's for modal settings (eg., AFE) that the 8250 port
driver needs to merge in when changing mctrl bits (DTR/RTS/etc).

The serial core caches the mctrl bits in uart_port->mctrl, but IMO
it would be simpler to always set/clear RTS here (rather than like
the omap-serial driver where it checks the gpio value first).

Is the assumption that userspace will not perform conflicting
operations, such as ioctl(TIOCMSET) or ioctl(TCSETSx), with RS485 enabled?
