ARM: OMAP4: Fix NULL pointer dereference crash.
After the patch series "[PATCH 00/14] OMAP PM fixes for .31-rc" merge in 2.6.31-rc5, the kernel crashed during boot on OMAP4430. This patch fixes it by adding UART4 support and related code. Without this patch omap_serial_init() would produce " NULL pointer dereference" and kernel crashes in the bootup on OMAP4430 platform. Some more info on the merge issue can be found here.
