There seems to be more stuff done in this console setup path that is
duplicated by the msm_set_termios() function. Can we clean it all up? I
would bet that the msm_reset() is there because we changed the buad rate
and so if we remove the baud rate setting we can remove the reset as
well (see commit a12f1b406f2d tty: serial: msm: Reset uartdm after baud
rate change, 2014-10-29). We might as well dump the
CR_CMD_PROTECTION_EN  and CR_TX_ENABLE thing as well given that we do
the same in msm_set_baud_rate() already. And maybe we can even get rid
of the baud rate capping and forced 8N1 setting that goes on here too.
Just let the user do what they want?
