I don't know much about these specific devices, but the qnap
equivalent, there is a user space daemon which also talks to the
microcontroller, for things like a temperature sensor, buzzer, etc.

So the UART can be in a messed up state, which is why the QNAP driver,
which this code is modelled on, reset it back to a good state.
