serial_core: fix uart PORT_UNKNOWN handling
While porting a RS485 driver from 2.6.29 to 3.14, i noticed that the serial tty
driver could break it by using uart ports that it does not own :
1. uart_change_pm ist called during uart_open and calls the uart pm function
without checking for PORT_UNKNOWN.
The fix is to move uart_change_pm from uart_open to uart_port_startup.
2. The return code from the uart request_port call in uart_set_info is not
handled properly, leading to the situation that the serial driver also
thinks it owns the uart ports.
This can triggered by doing following actions :
setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none # release the uart ports
modprobe lirc-serial # or any other device that uses the uart
setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart 16550 # gives no error and the uart tty driver
# can use the ports as well
