Currently, the RX interrupt logic uses the RXEMPTY interrupt, with the RXEMPTYINV bit set, which means we get an RX interrupt as soon as the RX FIFO is non-empty. However, with the MAX310X having a FIFO of 128 bytes, this makes very poor use of the FIFO: we trigger an interrupt as soon as the RX FIFO has one byte, which means a lot of interrupts, each only collecting a few bytes from the FIFO, causing a significant CPU load. Instead this commit relies on two other RX interrupt events: - MAX310X_IRQ_RXFIFO_BIT, which triggers when the RX FIFO has reached a certain threshold, which we define to be half of the FIFO size. This ensure we get an interrupt before the RX FIFO fills up. - MAX310X_LSR_RXTO_BIT, which triggers when the RX FIFO has received some bytes, and then no more bytes are received for a certain time. Arbitrarily, this time is defined to the time is takes to receive 4 characters. On a Microchip SAMA5D3 platform that is receiving 20 bytes every 16ms over one MAX310X UART, this patch has allowed to reduce the CPU consumption of the interrupt handler thread from ~25% to 6-7%.
