Existing set_termios does not handle the option for enabling odd
parity. This patch fixes it.
NAK. PARODD does not enable parity generation or detection.
What if someone is trying to change from even to odd parity?
If userspace wants odd parity, then c_cflag must have both
PARENB and PARODD set.

Just PARODD does nothing.
From SUS v4, General Terminal Interface, 11.2.4 Control Modes;
"If PARENB is set, parity generation and detection shall be enabled
and a parity bit is added to each byte. If parity is enabled, PARODD
shall specify odd parity if set; otherwise, even parity shall be used."


In this conditional case, we setup some register bit for the same.
Is the above use case not a valid one?
