What "wire" is that? The serial wire? How do you know this? Many usb
to serial devices have no way to determine this, given that there is
another uart hanging off of the end of a USB connection.
Doesn't serdev_device_write() return when the write is finished? I
think we need some good documentation here for all of the different
variants of how to send data, as I'm sure confused...
