[PATCH] serial: altera_uart: fix locking in polling mode

[Gabriel Somlo]

Since altera_uart_interrupt() may also be called from
a poll timer in "serving_softirq" context, use
spin_[lock_irqsave|unlock_irqrestore] variants, which
are appropriate for both softirq and hardware interrupt
contexts.

I used this driver as a sorce of inspiration for adding IRQ support to
the LiteX LiteUART, and this topic came up during review. So I thought
it might be helpful to fix it here as well!
