serial: core: fix tcdrain() with CTS enabled
Do not set timeout to twice the approximate amount of time to send the entire FIFO if CTS is enabled. If the caller requested no timeout, e.g. when userspace program called tcdrain(), then wait without any timeout. Premature return from tcdrain() was observed on imx based system which has 32 character long transmitter FIFO with hardware CTS handling. Simple userspace application that reproduces problem has to: * Open tty device, enable hardware flow control (CRTSCTS) * Write data, e.g. 26 bytes * Call tcdrain() to wait for the transmitter * Close tty device The other side of serial connection has to: * Receive some data, e.g. 10 bytes * Set RTS output (CTS input from sender perspective) inactive for at least twice the port timeout * Try to receive remaining data Without this patch, userspace application will finish without any error while the other side of connection will never receive remaining data.
