The change looks in fact correct, see:
commit 9a12fcf8b1543c99ffcec3d61db86f0dea52dc9d

    serial: omap: fix the reciever line error case

It also says: "This is recommended in the interrupt reset method in the
table 23-246 of the omap4 TRM."

The character read is erroneous and should be apparently dropped. But
you should add a comment about it, though.
