Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct
device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the
of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time.  This was unsafe
because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver.  If
two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the
same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get
overwritten.

This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to
call of_match_device() directly instead.

Get rid of users of of_platform_driver in drivers/serial.  The
of_platform_{,un}register_driver functions are going away, so the
users need to be converted to using the platform_bus_type directly.

There is no need to test for a device_type property in ns8250
compatible serial ports.  device_type is an OpenFirmware property that
is not required when using the flattened tree representation.

The serial drivers are really just tty drivers, so move them to
drivers/tty/ to make things a bit neater overall.

This is part of the tty/serial driver movement proceedure as proposed by
Arnd Bergmann and approved by everyone involved a number of months ago.
