The shutdown function was not waiting for the FIFO (which may be the real 16 byte FIFO or the DMA buffer, if DMA is enabled) to flush before disabling the AUART. This lead to many bytes not being transferred (specially at low baudrates), as they were still in the DMA buffer when the AUART was shutdown. This patch also adds the check for the BUSY flag before disabling the AUART.

If the 2nd loop is needed the tx_empty callback is buggy. According to Documentation/serial/driver tx_empty "tests whether the transmitter fifo and shifter for the port [...] is empty". I guess it only tests for the fifo part? Time for another fix ... Best regards Uwe
