Commit a6845e1e1b78 ("serial: core: Consider rs485 settings to drive
RTS") sought to deassert RTS when opening an rs485-enabled uart port.
That way, the transceiver does not occupy the bus until it transmits
data.
Unfortunately, the commit mixed up the logic and *asserted* RTS instead
of *deasserting* it:
The commit amended uart_port_dtr_rts(), which raises DTR and RTS when
opening an rs232 port. "Raising" actually means lowering the signal
that's coming out of the uart, because an rs232 transceiver not only
changes a signal's voltage level, it also *inverts* the signal. See
the simplified schematic in the MAX232 datasheet for an example:
https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/max232.pdf
So, to raise RTS on an rs232 port, TIOCM_RTS is *set* in port->mctrl
and that results in the signal being driven low.
In contrast to rs232, the signal level for rs485 Transmit Enable is the
identity, not the inversion: If the transceiver expects a "high" RTS
signal for Transmit Enable, the signal coming out of the uart must also
be high, so TIOCM_RTS must be *cleared* in port->mctrl.
The commit did the exact opposite, but it's easy to see why given the
confusing semantics of rs232 and rs485. Fix it.
