TTY/serial fixes for 3.9-rc4

Here are some tty/serial driver fixes for 3.9.

The big thing here is the fix for the huge mess we caused renaming the 8250
driver accidentally in the 3.7 kernel release, without realizing that there
were users of the module options that suddenly broke.  This is now resolved,
and, to top the injury off, we have a backwards-compatible option for those
users who got used to the new name since 3.7.  Ugh, sorry about that.

Other than that, some other minor fixes for issues that have been reported by
users.
