This is a port of the commit
db1b5bc047b3cadaedab3826bba82c3d9e023c4b ("Fix TX interrupt handling condition")
to the FSL-specifific interrupt handling routine.

Especially essential in case of RS 485 operation.

This is a port of the commit
db1b5bc047b3cadaedab3826bba82c3d9e023c4b ("Fix TX interrupt handling condition")
to the FSL-specifific interrupt handling routine.

Interrupt handler checked THRE bit (transmitter holding register
empty) in LSR to detect if TX fifo is empty.
In case when there is only receive interrupts the TX handling
got called because THRE bit in LSR is set when there is no
transmission (FIFO empty). TX handling caused TX stop, which in
RS-485 half-duplex mode actually resets receiver FIFO. This is not
desired during reception because of possible data loss.

The fix is to check if THRI is set in IER in addition of the TX
fifo status. THRI in IER is set when TX is started and cleared
when TX is stopped.
This ensures that TX handling is only called when there is really
transmission on going and an interrupt for THRE and not when there
are only RX interrupts.

See the kernel documentation file "submitting patches" for how to
reference commits within changelogs.  This paragraph should look
something like:

	This is the port of the commit db1b5bc047b3 ("serial: 8250: Fix TX
	interrupt handling condition") to the 8250_fsl irq handling logic.

Right?

Does this fix up a bug that has always been there, or was caused by a
specific kernel change?  If a specific one, please list that on the
Fixes: line.

Can you fix this up and resend?

thanks,
