serial: 8250: fix racy uartclk update
commit 211cde4f5817dc88ef7f8f2fa286e57fbf14c8ee upstream.
Commit 868f3ee6e452 ("serial: 8250: Add 8250 port clock update method")
added a hack to support SoCs where the UART reference clock can
change behind the back of the driver but failed to add the proper
locking.
First, make sure to take a reference to the tty struct to avoid
dereferencing a NULL pointer if the clock change races with a hangup.
Second, the termios semaphore must be held during the update to prevent
a racing termios change.
