With SMP kernels _irqsave spinlock disables only local interrupts, while
the shared serial interrupt could be assigned to the CPU that is not
currently starting up the serial port.
This might cause issues because serial8250_startup() routine issues
IRQ-triggering operations before registering the port in the IRQ chain
(though, this is fine to do and done explicitly because we don't want to
process any interrupts on the port startup).
With RT kernels and preemptable hardirqs, _irqsave spinlock does not
disable local hardirqs, and the bug could be reproduced much easily:
$ cat /dev/ttyS0 &
$ cat /dev/ttyS1
irq 42: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)

Disabling IRQ #42
After this, all serial ports on the given IRQ are non-functional.
To fix the issue we should explicitly disable shared IRQ before
issuing any IRQ-triggering operations.
I also changed spin_lock_irqsave to the ordinary spin_lock, since it
seems to be safe: chain does not contain new port (yet), thus nobody
will interfere us from the ISRs.

Fix the epca driver to call epca_setup() if digiepca=xxx is included on the
command line and the epca driver is built in.
epca_setup() used to be called from init/main.c in 2.2 kernels, but somewhere
along the way that call was removed but not replaced.

Fix the Stallion driver's putchar() and break_ctl() ops and iStallion's
putchar() to return values.
Is it actually possible for putchar() or break_ctl() to be called with tty ==
NULL or can the check be discarded?
Should stl_write() be returning 0 if tty->driver_data is NULL or tx.buf is
NULL? Is this even possible?
I've made Stallion's functions return -EINVAL as stli_breakctl() if the checks
fail.

Some hardware needs to do break handling itself and may have partial
support only. Make break_ctl return an error code. Add a tty driver flag
so you can indicate driver hardware side break support.
