Ilpo Järvinen d0bcf6caa2 serial: 8250: Fix serial8250_tx_empty() race with DMA Tx 
commit 146a37e05d upstream.

There's a potential race before THRE/TEMT deasserts when DMA Tx is
starting up (or the next batch of continuous Tx is being submitted).
This can lead to misdetecting Tx empty condition.

It is entirely normal for THRE/TEMT to be set for some time after the
DMA Tx had been setup in serial8250_tx_dma(). As Tx side is definitely
not empty at that point, it seems incorrect for serial8250_tx_empty()
claim Tx is empty.

Fix the race by also checking in serial8250_tx_empty() whether there's
DMA Tx active.

Note: This fix only addresses in-kernel race mainly to make using
TCSADRAIN/FLUSH robust. Userspace can still cause other races but they
seem userspace concurrency control problems.

README 

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 Restructured Text 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.
