I pulled out the 'ch' variable from the macro to avoid having
the macro define local variables that are then passed to the
inner expressions.

Here is a patch on top of the series that would implement the
uart_port_tx_helper_limited() and uart_port_tx_helper()
macros that can be used directly from drivers in place of defining
local functions, with the (alphabetically) first two drivers
converted to that.

I left the (now trivial) DEFINE_UART_PORT_TX_HELPER_LIMITED() and
DEFINE_UART_PORT_TX_HELPER() macros in place to keep it building,
but they would get removed if we decide to use something like
my suggested approach for all drivers.
