platform: uart: disable IRQ while UART sending data
To send some bytes by UART, we program the DM_NO_CHARS_FOR_TX
register to tell UART FSM how many data we have. Then we write
the data to the DM_TF register one by one. Once the number we
write to the DM_TF is equal to DM_NO_CHARS_FOR_TX, TX_RDY signal
will be set. And we send the data successfully.
Consider this scenario, the flow is aborted, by the X IRQ,
in the following position:
...
check TX_RDY signal
...
write DM_NO_CHARS_FOR_TX
... ---------->aborted by X IRQ
write DM_TF
...
And the X IRQ handler also wants to send out some data by UART.
Then the IRQ handler will hang at the TX_RDY checking. Because
the TX_RDY never arrives if the previous flow doesn't finish.
