Emil reports:
After updating Linux on an i.MX28 board, serial communication over
AUART broke. When I TX from the board and measure on the TX pin, it
seems like the HW fifo is not emptied before the transmission is
stopped.

MXS performs weird things with stop_tx(). The driver makes it
conditional on uart_tx_stopped().

So the driver needs special handling. Pass the brand new UART_TX_NOSTOP
to uart_port_tx_flags() and handle the stop on its own.

Fixes: 2d141e683e9a ("tty: serial: use uart_port_tx() helper")
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/miwgbnvy3hjpnricubg76ytpn7xoceehwahupy25bubbduu23s@om2lptpa26xw/

Am I unable to send a proper patch anymore?

I forgot to add mxs+arm maintainers:

Cc: Pengutronix Kernel Team <kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Cc: Fabio Estevam <festevam@xxxxxxxxx>

I can resend with those fixed, if you prefer...
