Certain SOC platforms utilize the 8250 serial UART core that do not provide valid modem control lines (in particular, CTS). A mechanism is needed to allow platforms to configure the 8250 driver to disable modem status interrupts. Add a new UPF_NO_MSR flag and use it to check for the condition.
This patch was tested using a MityDSP-L138F platform having a UART CTS pin connected to a clock signal (and configured, via pinmux, as a clock input for another peripheral function).
