We had been using traditional 8250 driver as uart console driver
prior to omap-serial driver. Since we have omap-serial driver
in mainline kernel for some time now it has been used as default
uart console driver on omap2+ platforms. Remove 8250 support for
omap-uarts.

Nice to see the this disappearing.

Serial_in and serial_out override for 8250 serial driver is also
removed. Empty fifo read fix is already taken care with omap-serial
driver with data ready bit check from LSR reg before reading RX fifo.

As stated in the previous review.  Patches that move code/features
should have the removal and the add-back in the same patch.  Doing so
makes it easy for reviewers to see whether it was simply moved, or if it
was modified when it was moved, etc.

Also waiting for THRE(transmit hold reg empty) is done with wait_for_xmitr
in omap-serial driver.

Again, remove it here in the patch that adds that support (the errata
patch I guess.)

Remove headers that were necessary to support 8250 support
and remove all config bindings done to keep 8250 backward compatibility
while adding omap-serial driver. Remove omap_uart_reset needed for
8250 autoconf.

So basically, this patch should only remove the legacy 8250 support (as
the subject says) and everything else should be done in the other
relevant patches.
