serial: Test for no tx data on tx restart
Commit 717f3bbab3c7628736ef738fdbf3d9a28578c26c, 'serial_core: Fix conditional start_tx on ring buffer not empty' exposes an incorrect assumption in several drivers' start_tx methods; the tx ring buffer can, in fact, be empty when restarting tx while performing flow control. Affected drivers: sunsab.c ip22zilog.c pmac_zilog.c sunzilog.c m32r_sio.c imx.c Other in-tree serial drivers either are not affected or already test for empty tx ring buffer before transmitting. Test for empty tx ring buffer in start_tx() method, after transmitting x_char (if applicable). Reported-by: Aaro Koskinen <aaro.koskinen@iki.fi> Cc: Seth Bollinger <sethb@digi.com> Cc: "David S.
