[PATCH] m68knommu: fixes to the ColdFire serial driver

From: <gerg@snapgear.com>

A whole bunch of fixes for the ColdFire serial driver:

. remove unused CONFIG_LEDMAN code
. reformat port definitions to new style structure init
. change "addr" field type to reduce casting in ColdFire serial driver
. cleanup locking problems in mcfrs_write().
. implement fraction baud rate clock support for hardware that
  supports it (namely the ColdFire 5272)
. implement wait_until_sent, some ColdFire parts of hardware support
  for this (again the 5272).
. correctly use return values from put_user(), get_user() and copy_to_user()

Many of these originaly from kernel janitors.
