serial: pl011: Fix lockdep splat when handling magic-sysrq interrupt
Issuing a magic-sysrq via the PL011 causes the following lockdep splat,
which is easily reproducible under QEMU:
  | sysrq: Changing Loglevel
  | sysrq: Loglevel set to 9

  | ------------------------------------------------------
  | systemd-journal/138 is trying to acquire lock:
  | ffffab133ad950c0 (console_owner){-.-.}-{0:0}, at: console_lock_spinning_enable+0x34/0x70
  |
  | but task is already holding lock:
  | ffff0001fd47b098 (&port_lock_key){-.-.}-{2:2}, at: pl011_int+0x40/0x488
  |
  | which lock already depends on the new lock.
  [...]
  |  Possible unsafe locking scenario:
  |
  |        CPU0                    CPU1
  |        ----                    ----
  |   lock(&port_lock_key);
  |                                lock(console_owner);
  |                                lock(&port_lock_key);
  |   lock(console_owner);
  |
  |  *** DEADLOCK ***
The issue being that CPU0 takes 'port_lock' on the irq path in pl011_int()
before taking 'console_owner' on the printk() path, whereas CPU1 takes
the two locks in the opposite order on the printk() path due to setting
the "console_owner" prior to calling into into the actual console driver.
Fix this in the same way as the msm-serial driver by dropping 'port_lock'
before handling the sysrq.
