The 8250 FIFOs indeed need to be cleared after stopping transmission in
RS485 mode without SER_RS485_RX_DURING_TX flag set. But there are two
problems with the approach taken by the previous patch from Fixes tag.
First, serial8250_clear_fifos() should clear fifos, but what it really
does is it enables the FIFOs unconditionally if present, clears them
and then sets the FCR register to zero, which effectively disables the
FIFOs. In case the FIFO is disabled, enabling it and clearing it makes
no sense and in fact can trigger misbehavior of the 8250 core. Moreover,
the FCR register may contain other FIFO configuration bits which may not
be writable unconditionally and writing them incorrectly can trigger
misbehavior of the 8250 core too. (ie. AM335x UART swallows the first
byte and retransmits the last byte twice because of this FCR write).
Second, serial8250_clear_and_reinit_fifos() completely reloads the FCR,
but what really has to happen at the end of the RS485 transmission is
clearing of the FIFOs and nothing else.
This patch repairs serial8250_clear_fifos() so that it really only
clears the FIFOs by operating on FCR[2:1] bits and leaves all the
other bits alone. It also undoes serial8250_clear_and_reinit_fifos()
from __do_stop_tx_rs485() as serial8250_clear_fifos() is sufficient.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
