mvebu-uart.c driver in its tx_ready function should probably use
STAT_TX_RDY macro (access to STAT_TX_RDY bit in register).
Documentation for UART1 (STD) about this bit says:
This bit is set when TRANS_HLD (our UART_TSH macro) is empty and ready
for the CPU to write the next character to be transmitted out. The TSR
can still shift out the previous character when this bit is set. This
bit is cleared when the CPU writes to TRANS_HLD.
For UART2 (EXT) there is just information: UART Tx Ready for 1 Byte
Write. UART2 (EXT) has also bit (bit 5) which indicates that CPU can
load 4 bytes, but seems that this is not used by mvebu-uart.c driver.
Macro STAT_TX_RDY() is polled also in wait_for_xmitr() function.

I see that driver here currently use STAT_TX_FIFO_FUL for checking if it
can do next iteration and write next character to UART_TSH.
Documentation about this bit says that ... the FIFO is full, which is
indicated by TX_FIFO_FULL. TX_READY status is set as long as the FIFO is
not full. The Tx ready status is cleared when in THR FIFO is full.
In case driver does not use 4 byte loads for UART2, TX_READY and
!TX_FIFO_FULL are probably same...
Anyway, mvebu_uart_tx_chars() is called from the mvebu_uart_tx_isr()
interrupt handler which is registered for CTRL_RX_RDY_INT interrupt
which should signal when TX_READY is set.
