Subject: [PATCH] tty: serial: omap: increase max consoles to 10

Increase the maximum number of consoles possible to 10 since DRA7 now
has the maximum number of consoles possible. without doing this, for
example, enabling DRA7 UART10 results in internal data structures and
console cannot match up and we endup with a crash as follows:

<snip>

The final solution is to transition off to use 8250 driver and no
dependency on console structures and move away from omap-serial driver,
hence no major cleanups are done for this driver.
