[PATCH 09/19] mxser: don't flush buffer from mxser_close() directly

From: Jiri Slaby <hidden>
Date: 2021-11-18 07:32:04
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: moxa smartio/industio/intellio serial card, the rest, tty layer and serial drivers · Maintainers: Jiri Slaby, Linus Torvalds, Greg Kroah-Hartman

I fail to see the point of calling mxser_flush_buffer() from
mxser_close():
1) The SW xmit buffer is freed in mxser_shutdown_port() right after the
   call to mxser_flush_buffer().  And all 'cnt', 'head', and 'tail' are
   properly initialized to 0 in mxser_activate().
2) The HW buffer is flushed in mxser_shutdown_port() via
   mxser_disable_and_clear_FIFO() too.

So the effect of doing it by mxser_flush_buffer() in mxser_close() is
none. Hence remove it, so that when we use tty_port_close() later, the
code is 1:1 identical.
