Subject: [PATCH 07/11] altera_uart: Simplify altera_uart_console_putc

From: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@...tanz.ch>

The check for the TRDY flag after writing the character is not needed.
Also do a cpu_relax() inside the loop.

Pass a struct uart_port to altera_uart_console_putc, so we do not need
to get it (and dereference pointers) for every character.
