The port drain_delay parameter is used to add a time-based delay when
closing the port in order to allow the transmit FIFO to drain in cases
where we don't know how to tell if the FIFO is empty.

This series removes a redundant time-based delay which is no longer
needed, and documents the reason for two other uses where such a delay
is needed to let the transmitter shift register clear. As it turns out,
this is really only needed for one of the two device types handled by
the ti_usb_3410_5052 driver.

Subject: [PATCH 4/4] USB: serial: ti_usb_3410_5052: drop drain delay for 3410

Unlike the TUSB5052, the TUSB3410 has an LSR TEMT bit to tell if both
the transmitter data and shift registers are empty.

Make sure to check also the shift register on TUSB3410 when waiting for
the transmit buffer to drain during close and drop the time-based
one-char delay which is otherwise needed (e.g. 90 ms at 110 bps).

Subject: [PATCH 3/4] USB: serial: ti_usb_3410_5052: reduce drain delay to one char

The three-character drain delay was added by commit f1175daa5312 ("USB:
ti_usb_3410_5052: kill custom closing_wait") when removing the custom
closing-wait implementation, which used a fixed 20 ms poll period and
drain delay.

This was likely a bit too conservative as a one-character timeout (e.g.
33 ms at 300 bps) should be enough to compensate for the lack of a
transmitter empty bit in the TUSB5052 line-status register.

Document that the device line-status register doesn't tell when the
transmitter shift register has emptied and that this is why the
one-character drain delay is needed.

Subject: [PATCH 1/4] USB: serial: f81232: drop time-based drain delay

The f81232 driver now waits for the transmit FIFO to drain during close
so there is no need to keep the time-based drain delay, which would add
up to two seconds on every close for low line speeds.
