This appears to cause boot hangs on imx8qxp-mek (boards boots fine on 
next-20200324 if this patch is reverted)

It seems that this since this is called from lpuart32_startup with 
&sport->port.lock held and lpuart32_console_write takes the same lock it 
can and hang.

As a workaround I can just remove this print but there are other 
possible error conditions in dmaengine code which can cause a printk.

Maybe the port lock should only be held around register manipulation?

This is backwards: lpuart_dma_tx_request returns negative errno on failure.

This is not backwards.
