Subject: [PATCH 1/3] serial: Create uart_xmit_advance()

A very common pattern in the drivers is to advance xmit tail
index and do bookkeeping of Tx'ed characters. Create
uart_xmit_advance() to handle it.

Fixes: e9ea096dd225 ("serial: tegra: add serial driver")
Fixes: 2d908b38d409 ("serial: Add Tegra Combined UART driver")
