Subject: [PATCH] tty: serial: 8250_omap: fix tx with dma

Commit 1788cf6a91d9 ("tty: serial: switch from circ_buf to kfifo")
introduced two errors in the TX DMA handling for 8250_omap.

Firstly, kfifo_dma_out_prepare_mapped() needs a scatterlist with two
entries whereas only one is provided.  The same error was fixed for
8250_dma in 59449c9dbdaa ("tty: serial: 8250_dma: use sgl with 2 nents
to take care of buffer wrap").

Secondly, when the OMAP_DMA_TX_KICK flag is set, one byte is pulled from
the kfifo and emitted directly in order to start the DMA.  This is done
without updating DMA tx_size which leads to uart_xmit_advance() called
in the DMA complete callback advancing the kfifo by one too much.

In practice, transmitting N bytes has been seen to result in the last
N-1 bytes being sent repeatedly.

This change fixes both problems.
