I don't see why deasserting RTS wouldn't work, well at least as long as
the RTS signal is wired correctly.

My point was simply that calling serdev_device_set_rts() will generally
not work unless you first disable automatic (i.e. hw-managed) flow
control using serdev_device_set_flow_control(). The exact behaviour is
serial-controller dependent, but I assume the driver needs to be
platform agnostic.
