serial: omap: unlock the port lock
This patch unlocks the port lock before calling a serial_core API and re-acquires the port lock after calling it. This patch fixes a system freeze issue seen when the serial_core API uart_write_wakeup() eventually attempts to acquire the port lock already acquired by omap serial interrupt handler.
