Well, it clearly does not work as before.

Yeah, and that's precisely the broken part. Keeping the serdev
controller active is supposed to keep the serial controller active. Your
serial core rework appears to have broken just that.

The new "devices" that you've added (I have still not tried to
understand why that was even needed, it looks overly complicated) must
not change that. 

If the serdev controller is active, tx should just work (as it did
before).
