serial: imx: Restore original RXTL for console to fix data loss



Commit 7a637784 ("serial: imx: reduce RX interrupt frequency")
introduced a regression on the i.MX6UL EVK board. The issue can be
reproduced with the following steps:

- Open vi on the board.
- Paste a text file (~150 characters).
- Save the file, then repeat the process.
- Compare the sha256sum of the saved files.

The checksums do not match due to missing characters or entire lines.

Fix this by restoring the RXTL value to 1 when the UART is used as a
console.

This ensures timely RX interrupts and reliable data reception in console
mode.

With this change, pasted content is saved correctly, and checksums are
always consistent.
