serial: imx: Introduce timeout when waiting on transmitter empty
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
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.
