Instead of printing the head of the buffer, we should print the tail,
which is the byte we are sending to the device.

jsm uses a write queue that copies from uart_core circular buffer. This
copying however has some bugs, like not wrapping the head counter. Since
this write queue is also a circular buffer, the consumer function is
ready to use the uart_core circular buffer directly.
This buggy copying function was making some bytes be dropped when
transmitting to a raw tty, doing something like this.

This patch drops the driver write queue entirely, using the circular
buffer from uart_core only.

The serial drivers are really just tty drivers, so move them to
drivers/tty/ to make things a bit neater overall.
This is part of the tty/serial driver movement proceedure as proposed by
Arnd Bergmann and approved by everyone involved a number of months ago.
