serial: sh-sci: disable DMA for uart_console
commit 099506cbbc79c0bd52b19cb6b930f256dabc3950 upstream. As noted in commit 84b40e3b57ee ("serial: 8250: omap: Disable DMA for console UART"), UART console lines use low-level PIO only access functions which will conflict with use of the line when DMA is enabled, e.g. when the console line is also used for systemd messages. So disable DMA support for UART console lines.
