Revert "serial: uart: add hw flow control support configuration"
This reverts commit 06aa82e4 . This commit purports to enable auto CTS flow control for the 8250 UART driver. However, the 8250 UART driver already supports auto CTS flow control via UART_CAP_AFE and UART_CAP_EFR. Indeed, this patch introduces another DT attribute for which an existing firmware flag already exists ("auto-flow-control"). Furthermore, the use of UPF_HARD_FLOW requires the UART driver to define .throttle and .unthrottle methods, neither of which are defined for the 8250 UART driver (which will result in a NULL ptr dereference). Finally, this patch supposes to fix existing bugs in the serial core for auto CTS-enabled hardware, but does not include the class of hardware for which these bugs exist.
