[Bala]: sure will revert, i think he commented that wait_until_sent()
will only guarantee circular buffer is empty. if wait_until_sent()
guarantee us that the data was transmitted from the FIFO, then 100us
will work.
No, Matthias is correct; I claimed that the UART FIFO will be empty (at
least as long as flow control is disabled, otherwise it may never empty
and we therefore also have a time out).
