Subject: [PATCH] serial: tegra: Fix a mask operation that is always true

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

Currently the expression lsr | UART_LSR_TEMT is always true and
this seems suspect. I believe the intent was to mask lsr with UART_LSR_TEMT
to check that bit, so the expression should be using the & operator
instead. Fix this.

Fixes: b9c2470fb150 ("serial: tegra: flush the RX fifo on frame error")
