serial: 8250: dma: Allow driver operations before starting DMA transfers

[ Upstream commit 0bc40a139cacc9852415e97aab439bdc30449326 ]

One situation where this could be used is when configuring the UART
controller to be the DMA flow controller. This is a typical case where
the driver might need to program a few more registers before starting a
DMA transfer. Provide the necessary infrastructure to support this
case.
