[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.1 08/12] serial: imx: Introduce timeout when waiting on transmitter empty

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Wed Jun 05 2024 - 08:12:20 EST


From: Esben Haabendal <esben@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit e533e4c62e9993e62e947ae9bbec34e4c7ae81c2 ]

By waiting at most 1 second for USR2_TXDC to be set, we avoid a potential
deadlock.

In case of the timeout, there is not much we can do, so we simply ignore
the transmitter state and optimistically try to continue.
