Hans de Goede reported Bluetooth adapters (HCIs) connected over an UART
connection failed due corrupted Rx payload. The problem was narrowed
down to DMA Rx starting on UART_IIR_THRI interrupt. The problem occurs
despite LSR having DR bit set, which is precondition for attempting to
start DMA Rx in the first place.

From a debug patch:
[x.807834] 8250irq: iir=cc lsr+saved=60 received=0/15 ier=0f dma_t/rx/err=0/0/0
[x.808676] 8250irq: iir=c2 lsr+saved=61 received=0/0 ier=0f dma_t/rx/err=0/0/0
[x.808776] 8250irq: iir=cc lsr+saved=60 received=1/12 ier=0d dma_t/rx/err=0/1/0
[x.808870] Bluetooth: hci0: Frame reassembly failed (-84)

In the debug snippet, received field indicates 1 byte was transferred
over DMA and 12 bytes after that with the non-DMA Rx. The sole byte DMA
handled was corrupted (gets zeroed) which leads to the HCI failure.

This problem became apparent after commit e8ffbb71 ("serial: 8250:
use THRE & __stop_tx also with DMA") changed Tx stop behavior. Tx stop
is now triggered from a THRI interrupt.

Despite that this problem looks like a HW bug, this fix is not adding
UART_BUG_xx flag to the driver beucase it seems useful in general to
avoid starting DMA when there are only a few bytes to transfer.
Skipping DMA for small transfers avoids the extra overhead DMA incurs.

Thus, don't setup DMA Rx on UART_IIR_THRI but leave it to a subsequent
interrupt which has Rx a related IIR value.

By returning false from handle_rx_dma(), the DMA vs non-DMA decision is
postponed until either UART_IIR_RDI (FIFO threshold worth of bytes
awaiting) or UART_IIR_TIMEOUT (inter-character timeout) triggers at a
later time which allows better to discern whether the number of bytes
warrants starting DMA or not.
