serial: 8250: Never adjust UART_LSR_DR in @read_status_mask

The CREAD feature of termios is implemented by setting/clearing
UART_LSR_DR within @ignore_status_mask. For this feature to
function correctly, it requires that UART_LSR_DR is never
masked (unset) in @read_status_mask so that uart_insert_char()
can properly drop the character if CREAD is disabled.

Currently there are code paths that clear/set UART_LSR_DR from
@read_status_mask at times. This appears to be a relic from
Linux 1.1.60, where @read_status_mask could be used to mask
all UART_LSR reading. However, since Linux 2.1.8 that is no
longer the case. Now if UART_LSR_DR is cleared from
@read_status_mask, received characters may not be dropped
even though CREAD is disabled.

This can be seen when:

- CREAD is disabled (UART_LSR_DR is set in @ignore_status_mask)
- LSR has an error bit set from UART_LSR_BRK_ERROR_BITS
  (and that error is not ignored via @ignore_status_mask)
- UART_LSR_DR is cleared in @read_status_mask

In this case characters will be inserted into the tty buffer
even though they should be ignored.

Remove all setting/clearing of UART_LSR_DR for
@read_status_mask except for its initialization.
