tty: serial: 8250_omap: fix TX with DMA for am33xx

commit b495021a upstream.

Commit 1788cf6a ("tty: serial: switch from circ_buf to kfifo")
introduced an error in the TX DMA handling for 8250_omap.

When the OMAP_DMA_TX_KICK flag is set, the "skip_byte" is pulled from
the kfifo and emitted directly in order to start the DMA. While the
kfifo is updated, dma->tx_size is not decreased. This leads to
uart_xmit_advance() called in omap_8250_dma_tx_complete() advancing the
kfifo by one too much.

In practice, transmitting N bytes has been seen to result in the last
N-1 bytes being sent repeatedly.

This change fixes the problem by moving all of the dma setup after the
OMAP_DMA_TX_KICK handling and using kfifo_len() instead of the DMA size
for the 4-byte cutoff check. This slightly changes the behaviour at
buffer wraparound, but it still transmits the correct bytes somehow.

Now, the "skip_byte" would no longer be accounted to the stats. As
previously, dma->tx_size included also this skip byte, up->icount.tx was
updated by aforementioned uart_xmit_advance() in
omap_8250_dma_tx_complete(). Fix this by using the uart_fifo_out()
helper instead of bare kfifo_get().
