[PATCH v3 2/2] USB: serial: cp210x: Proper RTS control when buffers fill

From: Phu Luu
Date: Fri Jun 26 2020 - 00:24:27 EST


From: Brant Merryman <brant.merryman@xxxxxxxxxx>

CP210x hardware disables auto-RTS but leaves auto-CTS when
in hardware flow control mode and UART on cp210x hardware
is disabled. This allows data to flow out, but new data
will not come into the port. When re-opening the port, if
auto-CTS is enabled on the cp210x, then auto-RTS must be
re-enabled in the driver.
