Commit 734745ca serial/amba-pl011: Activate TX IRQ passively adds some complexity and overhead in the form of a softirq mechanism for transmitting in the absence of interrupts. This patch simplifies the code flow to reduce the reliance on subtle behaviour and avoid fragility under future maintenance. To this end, the TX softirq mechanism is removed and instead pl011_start_tx() will now simply stuff the FIFO until full (guaranteeing future TX IRQs), or until there are no more chars to write (in which case we don't care whether an IRQ happens).
