> Yeah, this only fixes a couple of annoying issues, but nothing fatal. Also improves power efficiency in some cases which is a nice to have feature, and basically eases the development of PM code as the UART does not block the system from sleeping always.

Yeah cool. Separate issue, but I wonder if we should also clear
the the first rx character from the fifo to avoid corrupting
the console. Only when the uart clocks are off and and
we get a key press. Would be easy to do just do with one
serial_read_reg(uart->p, UART_RX)..
