So below is an incomplete pseudo patch just showing where we could disable
tx for runtime PM.

The patch won't compile, and assumes we only disable tx for runtime PM.

However, if we need it elsewhere also, then we may want to set up some
UPF_TX_ENABLED type flag instead of serial_base_port specific calls.

My preference would be to limit it to serial_port.c if we can get away
with that.

Anybody have better ideas for enabling and disabling tx?

No objections from me for clearing the xmit. But should it also be done for
uart_shutdown() in addition to uart_tty_port_shutdown()?
