I don't think it matters since serial8250_do_startup() has its own
pm_runtime_get_sync().

->startup(), ->shutdown() are called via omap callbacks so we could
spare in the 8250-core if we do it in the omap code before invoking the
function. The same goes for serial8250_set_termios() which is not used
by omap but has those runtime-pm stuff, too.
It would be wrong if someone would use the serial8250_do_startup()
without his own runtime-pm get but it is omap only which does this
things.
So it is not used by anyone else (right now) and if you want to keep it
to a minimum I could remove them from those places.
