[PATCH] 8250: Hypervisors always export working 16550A UARTs.

["Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones@redhat.com>]

Currently autoconf spends 25ms (on my laptop) testing if the UART
exported to it by KVM is an 8250 without FIFO and/or with strange
quirks, which it obviously isn't.  Assume it is exported to us by a
hypervisor, it's a normal, working 16550A.
