The Qualcomm GENI serial driver did not handle buffer flushing and used
to print discarded characters when the circular buffer was cleared.
Since commit 1788cf6a91d9 ("tty: serial: switch from circ_buf to kfifo")
this instead resulted in a hard lockup due to
qcom_geni_serial_send_chunk_fifo() spinning indefinitely in the
interrupt handler.
The underlying bugs have now been fixed, but make sure to output NUL
characters instead of killing the machine if a similar driver bug is
ever reintroduced.
