Avoid data corruption issues that result in
CRC erros during file transfers over serial ports
at higher baud rates.
The current msm_serial driver masks the FIFO Rx
interrupts in msm_start_rx_dma() since Rx FIFO
interrupts are not required in DMA mode. However,
msm_complete_rx_dma() renables the Rx FIFO interrupt
which could cause RXSTALE event to be processed
when a TXLEV interrupt occurs.
The following is the sequence of events that
could occur resulting in data corruption
msm_start_rx_dma -> msm_complete_rx_dma -->
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&port->lock) --> msm_uart_irq()
(For TXLEV interrupt) --> msm_handle_rx_dm() (Read
from FIFO resulting in data corruption)
The patch fixes the issue by not restoring the RXLEV
and RXSTALE interrupts in msm_complete_rx_dma(). These
interrupts are required only in FIFO mode.
