Whenever the UART device driver gets closed from userland, the driver
disables the UART unit and then stops its clock to save power.
The bit which disabled the UART unit is described as:
"UART Enable. If this bit is set to 1, the UART is enabled. Data
transmission and reception occurs for the UART signals. When the
UART is disabled in the middle of transmission or reception, it
completes the current character before stopping."
The important part is the "it completes the current character". Whenever
a reception is ongoing when the UART gets disabled (including the clock
off) the statemachine freezes and "remembers" this state on the next
open() and re-enabling of the unit's clock.
In this case we end up receiving an additional bogus character
immediately.
The solution in this change is to move the AUART unit into its reset
state on close() and only release it from its reset state on the next
open().

Sorry, i missed that in my first review. It looks like that the newline
at the end of the error message is missing.

:) follows. Will send v3 which also contains the missing newline fix.
Thanks,
