tty/serial: atmel: fix race condition (TX+DMA)
commit 31ca2c63fdc0aee725cbd4f207c1256f5deaabde upstream.
If uart_flush_buffer() is called between atmel_tx_dma() and
atmel_complete_tx_dma(), the circular buffer has been cleared, but not
atmel_port->tx_len.
That leads to a circular buffer overflow (dumping (UART_XMIT_SIZE -
atmel_port->tx_len) bytes).
