[RFC PATCH 1/2] serial: sh-sci: start hrtimer after setting up DMA

From: Wolfram Sang
Date: Tue Apr 16 2024 - 08:36:23 EST


In the RX DMA completion handler, the hrtimer was restarted before DMA
was set up. If DMA failed, for some reason, it would clean up and the
hrtimer would run into a NULL-pointer. Restart the timer after DMA was
successfully set up.
