Recently we found the fifo_read() and fifo_write() are broken in our

for FIFO"), that is because the reg needs to shift if we don't
cherry-pick a prerequiste commit 3837a0379533 ("serial: sc16is7xx:
improve regmap debugfs by using one regmap per port").
Here fix it by shifting the reg as regmap_volatile() does.

Why not take the proper upstream commit instead?
The prerequisite commit 3837a0379533 will introduce significant change
and significant conflict if backport it to 5.15.y/5.10.y, It is more
likely to bring new regression.
