Dear Hector Palacios,
The ISR was handling CTS flag and RX/TX processing.
Occasionally interrupts were coming in the middle of the ISR and
led to blocking transmission (with hw flow) or loss of data.
This patch moves this processing to a tasklet that the ISR schedules.

Aren't you up for a nice race condition here if you get interrupt while checking
the s->irq_status bits in the tasklet ?
Sad, but true. :-(
But if I need to wait on the ISR for the tasklet to process then this patch loses its
original meaning. Argh... it works so nicely!
