+           Those chips take a longer time than a normal

+           data was queued. Due to that, the above test generally

+           iir. However, this is not reliable, since the timeout
+           is variable. So, let's just don't test if we receive
+           TX irq. This way, we'll never enable UART_BUG_TXEN.
