From: Allen Yan <yanwei@xxxxxxxxxxx> When receiving data on RX pin before ->uart_startup() is called, some error bits in the state register could be set up (like BRK_DET). This is harmless when using only the standard UART (error bits are read-only), but may procude an endless loop once in the extended UART RX interrupt handler (error bits must be cleared). Clear the status register in ->uart_startup() to avoid this situation.
