Subject: [PATCH 4.19 122/321] serial: sh-sci: Fix crash in rx_timer_fn() on PIO fallback

From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@...der.be>

[ Upstream commit 2e948218b7c1262a3830823d6620eb227e3d4e3a ]

When falling back to PIO, active_rx must be set to a different value
than cookie_rx[i], else sci_dma_rx_find_active() will incorrectly find a
match, leading to a NULL pointer dereference in rx_timer_fn() later.

Use zero instead, which is the same value as after driver
initialization.
