With the current implementation, we have: * FIFO is full -> pending() returns 0 * FIFO is partially used -> pending() returns 1 * FIFO is empty -> pending() returns 1 This is not the same as what the documentation requires. Moreover, since [1], arm reset now flushes all console devices (including serial) before the cpu gets reset. Because of the flawed logic: => reset # user calls reset flush() is called _serial_flush() is called ops->pending(dev, false) # never returns false # board hangs indefinitely without resetting. Fix it by using AML_UART_TX_EMPTY instead of AML_UART_TX_FULL.
