In ST16650V2 based serial uarts, while initalizing the PM state,
LCR registers are being initialized to 0 in serial8250_set_sleep().
If console port is already initialized and being used, this will
throws garbage in the console.

Why is it necessary to clear EFR and LCR here? Does the UART not
power down?

UARTs with CAP_SLEEP but not CAP_EFR don't clear LCR before sleep.

However, if there is some kind of intentional side-effect here,
then a comment should note that.
