In commit d3755f5e6cd2 ("tty: xuartps: Force enable the UART in xuartps_console_write") added some logic to enable TX before writing and resetting it back to the original state. Uwe Kleine-König discovered that commit e3538c37ee38 ("tty: xuartps: Beautify read-modify writes") breaks that logic and always leaves TX enabled. This commit reverts the unintended functional change.
