Do full flush on uart8250 only at end of printk.
The previous code does a full flush of the uart after every character. Unfortunately, this can cause transmission delays on some serial ports. This patch changes the code so that it does a flush at the end of every printk instead of at the end of every character. This reduces the time it takes to transmit serial messages (up to 9% on my Asrock e350m1 board). It also makes the transmission time more consistent which is important when performing timing tests via serial transmissions.
