serial: core: Flush ldisc after dropping port mutex in uart_close()
The tty buffers (and any line discipline buffers) must be flushed after
the UART hardware has shutdown; otherwise, a racing open on the same
tty may receive data from the previous session, which is a security
hazard. However, holding the port mutex while flushing the line
discipline buffers creates a lock inversion if the set_termios()
handler takes the port mutex (as it does in the followup patch,
'serial: Fix locking for uart driver set_termios method'.
Flush the ldisc buffers after dropping the port mutex; the tty lock
is still held which prevents a concurrent open() from advancing while
flushing. Since no new rx data is possible after uart_shutdown() until
a new open reinitializes the port, the later flush has no impact on
what data is being discarded.
