[PATCH 2/2] serial: 8250: Fix runtime PM for start_tx() for empty buffer

[Tony Lindgren]

Commit 932d596378b0 ("serial: 8250: Return early in .start_tx() if there
are no chars to send") caused a regression where the drivers implementing
runtime PM stopped idling.

We need to call serial8250_rpm_put_tx() on early exit, it normally gets
called later on at __stop_tx().

Fixes: 932d596378b0 ("serial: 8250: Return early in .start_tx() if there are no chars to send")
