tty: serial: OMAP: block idle while the UART is transferring data in PIO mode
Prevent OMAP UARTs from going idle while they are still transferring data in PIO mode. This works around an oversight in the OMAP UART hardware present in OMAP34xx and earlier: an idle UART won't send a wakeup when the TX FIFO threshold is reached. This causes long delays during data transmission when the MPU powerdomain enters a low-power mode. The MPU interrupt controller is not able to respond to interrupts when it's in a low-power state, so the TX buffer is not refilled until another wakeup event occurs. This fix changes the erratum i291 DMA idle workaround. Rather than toggling between force-idle and no-idle, it will toggle between smart-idle and no-idle. The important part of the workaround is the no-idle part, so this shouldn't result in any change in behavior. This fix should work on all OMAP UARTs. Future patches intended for the 3.4 merge window will make this workaround conditional on a "feature" flag, and will use the OMAP36xx+ TX event wakeup support. Thanks to Kevin Hilman <khilman@ti.com> for mentioning the erratum i291 workaround, which led to the development of this approach.
