[PATCH v2 2/3] serial: 8250: Store whether fifo device is enabled

[Michael Pratt <mcpratt@pm.me>]

Currently, there are 7 checks for whether to enable
the internal fifo device of a 8250/16550 type uart.

Instead of checking all 7 values again whenever
we need to know whether we have the fifo device enabled,
store the result as a struct member of uart_8250_port.

This can, for example, lessen the amount
of calculations done during a write operation.
