serial: qcom-geni: fix hard lockup on buffer flush
The Qualcomm GENI serial driver does not handle buffer flushing and used to continue printing discarded characters when the circular buffer was cleared. Since commit 1788cf6a ("tty: serial: switch from circ_buf to kfifo") this instead results in a hard lockup due to qcom_geni_serial_send_chunk_fifo() spinning indefinitely in the interrupt handler. This is easily triggered by interrupting a command such as dmesg in a serial console but can also happen when stopping a serial getty on reboot. Implement the flush_buffer() callback and use it to cancel any active TX command when the write buffer has been emptied.
