When using no_console_suspend, the serial console may be powered off anyway during system sleep. Upon resume, the port may be in its default power-on state, but is expected to continue console i/o before the device has received its pm callback. The resultant garbage i/o can cause all kinds of havoc on the remote end. Use the scratch register as a canary to discover if the console has been powered-off. Write a non-zero value to the scratch register at port suspend and reprogram the port before any console i/o if the scratch register != canary before port resume. This workaround is disabled for omap_8250 (which uses different divisor programming).
