[PATCH 3/4] serial: fsl_lpuart: avoid new transfer while DMA is running

From: Stefan Agner
Date: Thu Nov 27 2014 - 19:24:35 EST


When the UART is DMA receive mode (RDMAS set) and a character just
arrived, while another interrupt is handled, the RDRF (receiver data
register full flag) is set. But since the DMA will take care of it
there is no need to handle it by calling lpuart_prepare_rx. Handling
it leads in adding the RX timeout timer twice:
