Subject: [PATCH] serial: uartps: Wait for tx_empty in console setup

On some platforms, the log is corrupted while console is being
registered. It is observed that when set_termios is called, there
are still some bytes in the FIFO to be transmitted.

So, wait for tx_empty inside cdns_uart_console_setup before
calling set_termios.

You could do without the status variable. You could even combine the
while and if conditions.

And while you're at it, you might as well also rewrite the lines
1236-1238 to also use cdns_uart_tx_empty() for clarity.

Will send v2, addressing these.
