[PATCH] tty: serial: msm: Disable restoring Rx interrupts for DMA Mode

From: Abhishek Sahu <hidden>

From: Charanya <redacted>

The Data loss was happening with current QCOM MSM serial driver during
large file transfer due to simultaneous enabling of both UART and
DMA interrupt. When UART operates in DMA mode, RXLEV (Rx FIFO over
watermark) or RXSTALE (stale interrupts) should not be enabled,
since these conditions will be handled by DMA controller itself.
If these interrupts are enabled then normal UART ISR will read some
bytes of data from Rx Buffer and DMA controller will not receive
these bytes of data, which will cause data loss.

Now this patch removed the code for enabling of RXLEV and RXSTALE
interrupt in DMA Rx completion routine.
