Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] tty: mxser: Remove ASYNC_CLOSING

The tty core no longer provides ASYNC_CLOSING. Use private flag for
same purpose, which is to clear the fifos at each and every interrupt
during driver close(). The driver uses this sledgehammer approach because
its close/shutdown sequence is hopelessly borked.
