IMO, That's not a very maintainable solution.   

What happens when when someone fixes serial.c to only set
HWMOD_INIT_NO_IDLE on the console UART?  or if we fix things so we don't
need INIT_NO_IDLE anymore?  Then this will crash.

Driver code should not make assumptions like this about what device init
code is or isn't doing.
