From: Lad Prabhakar <prabhakar.mahadev-lad.rj@bp.renesas.com>
Replace direct calls to internal helpers such as sci_stop_tx(),
sci_start_tx(), sci_stop_rx(), sci_set_mctrl(), sci_enable_ms(), and
sci_request_port() with their corresponding port ops callbacks.
This change improves consistency and abstraction across the driver and
prepares the codebase for adding support for the RSCI driver on the
Renesas RZ/T2H SoC, which heavily reuses the existing SCI driver.

Thanks for your patch!
I am a bit reluctant to increase the number of indirect calls in a
driver that is also used on (old and slow) SH systems...

RSCI has its own implementation of sci_port_ops.transmit_chars(), so
I think it is better to avoid the overhead of an indirect call, and keep
calling sci_stop_tx() directly.

This function is indeed shared by sh-sci and rsci, but still unused
by the latter as it does not support DMA yet.

Likewise.
And once RSCI fully implements uart_ops.set_termios(), I think
it can just reuse sci_enable_ms().

Both sh-sci and rsci use sci_request_port() as their
uart_ops.request_port() callbacks, so please use a direct call.

Hi Geert,
Thank you for the review.

Ok, I will do that. My initial thought was just to replace the direct
calls where it's shared, But for consistency I replaced them all.
