serial: omap: Prevent DoS using unprivileged ioctl(TIOCSRS485)
The omap-serial driver emulates RS485 delays using software timers,
but neglects to clamp the input values from the unprivileged
ioctl(TIOCSRS485). Because the software implementation busy-waits,
malicious userspace could stall the cpu for ~49 days.
Clamp the input values to < 100ms.
