Subject: [PATCH v3] serial: sc16is7xx: address RX timeout interrupt errata
Date:   Wed, 15 Nov 2023 20:01:44 +0100

This device has a silicon bug that makes it report a timeout interrupt
but no data in the FIFO.

The datasheet states the following in the errata section 18.1.4:

  "If the host reads the receive FIFO at the same time as a
  time-out interrupt condition happens, the host might read 0xCC
  (time-out) in the Interrupt Indication Register (IIR), but bit 0
  of the Line Status Register (LSR) is not set (means there is no
  data in the receive FIFO)."

The errata doesn't explicitly mention that, but tests have shown
that the RXLVL register is equally affected.

This bug has hit us on production units and when it does, sc16is7xx_irq()
would spin forever because sc16is7xx_port_irq() keeps seeing an
interrupt in the IIR register that is not cleared because the driver
does not call into sc16is7xx_handle_rx() unless the RXLVL register
reports at least one byte in the FIFO.

Fix this by always reading one byte when this condition is detected
in order to clear the interrupt.

v3: re-added the additional Co-Developed-by and stable@ tags
v2: reworded the commit log a bit for more context.
