Need to use rs485 transceiver so let's use existing em485 485 emulation
layer on top of 8250.

Add rs485_config callback to port and uses the standard em485 start and
stop helpers.

Would it prevent to use native RS485 support?

8250_dw doesn't have a native RS485 support, do you mean using hardware
RTS assertion? Anyway at the moment it's not present. This would be the
first rs485 support added to 8250_dw.

Best regards
