It's all enforced at the end of serial_core.c already. Would you perhaps 
prefer I'd put them elsewhere or is it fine as is?

/*

static_assert(offsetof(struct kserial_rs485, flags) ==
              offsetof(struct serial_rs485, flags));

              offsetof(struct serial_rs485, delay_rts_before_send));
