tty: serial: imx: keep console clocks always on

commit e67c139c488e84e7eae6c333231e791f0e89b3fb upstream.

For below code, there has chance to cause deadlock in SMP system:
Thread 1:
clk_enable_lock();
pr_info("debug message");
clk_enable_unlock();

Thread 2:
imx_uart_console_write()
clk_enable()
clk_enable_lock();

Thread 1:
Acuired clk enable_lock -> printk -> console_trylock_spinning
Thread 2:
console_unlock() -> imx_uart_console_write -> clk_disable -> Acquite clk enable_lock

So the patch is to keep console port clocks always on like
other console drivers.
