While closing, new rx data may be received after the input buffers
have been flushed but before stop_rx() halts receiving [1]. The
new data might not be processed by flush_to_ldisc() until after
uart_shutdown() and normal input processing is re-enabled (ie.,
tty->closing = 0). The race is outlined below:

CPU 0                         | CPU 1
                              |
uart_close()                  |
   tty_port_close_start()     |
      tty->closing = 1        |
      tty_ldisc_flush()       |
                              | => IRQ
                              |   while (LSR & data ready)
                              |      uart_insert_char()
                              |   tty_flip_buffer_push()
                              | <= EOI
   stop_rx()                  |   .
   uart_shutdown()            |   .
      free xmit.buf           |   .
   tty_port_tty_set(NULL)     |   .
   tty->closing = 0           |   .
                              | flush_to_ldisc()
                              |   n_tty_receive_buf_common()
                              |      __receive_buf()
                              |         ...
                              |         commit_echoes()
                              |            uart_flush_chars()
                              |               __uart_start()
                              | ** OOPS on port.tty deref **
   tty_ldisc_flush()          |

Input processing must be prevented from echoing (tty->closing = 1)
until _after_ the input buffers have been flushed again at the end
of uart_close().

[1] In fact, some input may actually be buffered _after_ stop_rx()
since the rx interrupt may have already triggered but not yet been
handled when stop_rx() disables rx interrupts.
