serial: Z85C30: avoid a hang at console switch-over

Changes to the generic console support code that happened a while ago
introduced a scenario where the initial console is used in parallel with
the final console during a brief period when switching between the two is
in progress.  During that time a message about the switch-over is printed.

With some combinations of chips, firmware and drivers, such as the Zilog
Z85C30 SCC used with the DECstation, a hang may happen because the
firmware used for the initial console may not expect the state of the chip
after it has been initialised by the driver.  This is not a bug in the
firmware, as some registers it would have to examine are write-only.

This is a workaround for the Z85C30 which reuses the power-management
callback to keep the transmitter of the line associated with the console
enabled.  It reflects the consensus reached in a discussion a while ago.
