Use imx_start_tx() just to enable the TX interrupt. It's the job of the
TX interrupt ISR to fill the transmit buffer, then. If the transmit buffer
is empty, the TX interrupt should be executed as soon as the start_tx()
enables the interrupt, so there is no reason for the extra
imx_transmit_buffer() call, here. Remove it.
I don't know why this patch needed?
What problem this patch fix or improve?
As stated in the commit message, the call of imx_transmit_buffer() isn't
needed there, so it can be removed. I.e. remove unneeded code.
In the end, this cleans up the possible locking path, so that in the
third patch the locking issue can be easily fixed.
Best regards
Dirk
