/**
  Sets the baud rate, receive FIFO depth, transmit/receice time out, parity, 
  data buts, and stop bits on a serial device. This call is optional as the serial
  port will be set up with defaults base on PCD values.

  @param  BaudRate         The requested baud rate. A BaudRate value of 0 will use the the
                           device's default interface speed.
  @param  Parity           The type of parity to use on this serial device. A Parity value of
                           DefaultParity will use the device's default parity value.
  @param  DataBits         The number of data bits to use on the serial device. A DataBits
                           vaule of 0 will use the device's default data bit setting.
  @param  StopBits         The number of stop bits to use on this serial device. A StopBits
                           value of DefaultStopBits will use the device's default number of
                           stop bits.

  @retval EFI_SUCCESS      The device was configured.
  @retval EFI_DEVICE_ERROR The serial device could not be coonfigured.
