Johan Hovold 507786c51c serial: qcom-geni: fix hard lockup on buffer flush 
The Qualcomm GENI serial driver does not handle buffer flushing and used
to continue printing discarded characters when the circular buffer was
cleared. Since commit 1788cf6a91 ("tty: serial: switch from circ_buf
to kfifo") this instead results in a hard lockup due to
qcom_geni_serial_send_chunk_fifo() spinning indefinitely in the
interrupt handler.

This is easily triggered by interrupting a command such as dmesg in a
serial console but can also happen when stopping a serial getty on
reboot.

Implement the flush_buffer() callback and use it to cancel any active TX
command when the write buffer has been emptied.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
