Just found out that it doesn't help. Actually, it is the behavior of
tty_open function to call tty_port_block_til_ready after startup, and
of the latter - to set RTS via ioctl if baud is not zero - both of
which cannot be overriden within the scope of the 8250 framework. The
reason this works in legacy omap_serial is that my GPIO which is used
to emulate RTS is not tied to mctrl there, so the call of
tty_port_block_til_ready does not affect its state.

Therefore, a check for SER_RS485_ENABLED needs to be introduced to
tty_port_block_til_ready.
