greybus: uart: Use a fifo to send data to the modules

Browse source

The firmware now buffers data instead of blocking while the transfer
is sent, and the write operation cannot sleep.

Instead of using gb_transfer_sync (which sleeps) in the write callback,
buffer data in a fifo and send it from from a work queue.

The write_room callback will will report 1 byte less that what is really
available in the fifo, to leave space for extra characters that may
be added by the tty layer.
