Fabio Estevam f90d78d65c serial: imx: Restore original RXTL for console to fix data loss
commit f23c52aafb1675ab1d1f46914556d8e29cbbf7b3 upstream.

Commit 7a637784d5 ("serial: imx: reduce RX interrupt frequency")
introduced a regression on the i.MX6UL EVK board. The issue can be
reproduced with the following steps:

- Open vi on the board.
- Paste a text file (~150 characters).
- Save the file, then repeat the process.
- Compare the sha256sum of the saved files.

The checksums do not match due to missing characters or entire lines.

Fix this by restoring the RXTL value to 1 when the UART is used as a
console.

This ensures timely RX interrupts and reliable data reception in console
mode.

With this change, pasted content is saved correctly, and checksums are
always consistent.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
