The general idea looks solid to me.
I think, that with this property set, we should also reduce number of GPIOs exported by gpiochip.

I just had a chance to test this on my hardware (with SC16IS760), and something still doesn't work.
When looking into /sys/kernel/debug/regmap/<device>/registers,
it seems like the proper bits are set, also taking the regmap shift into account.
For reference - I did my test basing on v6.4-rc2.

I used a loopback plug and statserial to perform the test.
Without your patch, when DTR is set, all other pins (DCD, DSR, RI) are set. With it - they are cleared, according to statserial.
