[PATCH 10/25] serial: bfin_sport_uart: only enable SPORT TX if data is to be sent

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Sonic Zhang <sonic.zhang@xxxxxxxxxx>

Rather than always turn on the SPORT TX interrupt, only do it when we've
actually queued up data for transmission.  This avoids useless interrupt
processing.
