serial: 8250: fix potential deadlock in rs485-mode
Canceling hrtimer when holding uart spinlock can deadlock. CPU0: syscall write -> get uart port spinlock -> write uart -> start_tx_rs485 -> hrtimer_cancel -> wait for hrtimer callback to finish CPU1: hrtimer IRQ -> run hrtimer -> em485_handle_stop_tx -> get uart port spinlock CPU0 is waiting for the hrtimer callback to finish, but the hrtimer callback running on CPU1 is waiting to get the uart port spinlock. This deadlock can be avoided by not canceling the hrtimers in these paths. Setting active_timer=NULL can be done without accessing hrtimer, and that will effectively cancel operations that would otherwise have been performed by the hrtimer callback.
