Subject: [PATCH v1 tty-next] serial: 8250_pci1xxxx: Disable SERIAL_8250_PCI1XXXX config by default

Commit 32bb477fa7bf ("serial: 8250_pci1xxxx: Add driver for quad-uart
support") made the SERIAL_8250_PCI1XXXX driver enabled when SERIAL_8250
is enabled, disable it as this driver need not be enabled by default
