From: Daniel Starke <daniel.starke@xxxxxxxxxxx>
The current implementation does not handle the situation that no data is in
the internal queue and needs to be sent out while the user tty fifo is
full.
Add a timer that moves more data from user tty down to the internal queue
which is then serialized on the ldisc. This timer is triggered if no data
was moved from a user tty to the internal queue within 10 * T1.
Fixes: e1eaea46bb40 ("tty: n_gsm line discipline")
