Don't you want a non-zero timeout here? Otherwise you might as well call
serdev_device_write() directly.

Also have you made sure that serdev_device_write_wakeup() is called in
the drivers write-wakeup callback as serdev_device_write() requires?

See this series in case what you really wanted was to wait indefinitely
(you can use MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT):

Same here.
