So the question seems to be: why doesn't the on-going transfer finish (so
that tty_wakeup is called)?

Writer got woken but fifo is still full so write returns 0 and writer goes
back to sleep.

New transfer started from completion handler.

Writer woken up from completion handler after having started the
next transfer.

Now there was some room (29 + 483 = 512 bytes bytes just transfered).

Waiting forever for on-going transfer to finish...
