Yes, that can be done.

I cooked up an experimental patch, based on your above suggestion. The 
patch is
inlined along with  the mail. I tested the patch and it resolves
the issue.

Depending on whether no_console_suspend is used or not, we can set a 
variable
which can be used as a condition in runtime api's in serial driver.

The information whether "no_console_suspend" is used or not is parsed in
serial.c file, and this need to be communicated to the driver layer.

In my experimental patch below, I have used an extern variable
"force_console_suspend_disable".

Do you see a better way of handling this without using extern?

Subject: [PATCH] arm: mach-omap2: prevent UART console idle on suspend 
while using "no_console_suspend"

With dt boot, uart wakeup after suspend is non functional while using
"no_console_suspend" in the bootargs. With "no_console_suspend" used, 
od->flags
should be ORed with "OMAP_DEVICE_NO_IDLE_ON_SUSPEND", thereby not 
allowing the console
to idle in the suspend path.

Tested on omap5430evm, omap4430sdp.
