[PATCH] serial: 8250_dw: set clock rate

If the uart clock provided to the 8250_dw driver is adjustable it may
not be set to the desired rate. Therefore if both a uart clock and a
clock frequency is specified (e.g. via device tree), try and update the
clock to match the frequency.

Unfortunately if the resulting frequency is rounded down (which is the
default behaviour of the generic clk-divider), the 8250 core won't allow
the highest baud rate to be used, so if an explicit frequency is
specified we always report that to the 8250 core.

The device tree bindings document is also updated accordingly.
