tty: mxser: drop low-latency workaround
Commit 67d2bc58afdd ("Char: mxser_new, fix recursive locking") worked
around the infamous low_latency behaviour of tty_flip_buffer_push() by
simply dropping and reacquiring the port lock in the interrupt handler.
Since commit a9c3f68f3cd8 ("tty: Fix low_latency BUG"),
tty_flip_buffer_push() always schedules a work item to push data to the
line discipline and there's no need to keep any low_latency hacks around.
