[PATCH] Proper RTS control when buffers fill

From: Brant Merryman
Date: Mon Dec 09 2019 - 14:17:31 EST


Enables usb generic functions for throttle/unthrottle to prevent USB data
loss. CP210x hardware disables RTS but leaves CTS when in hardware flow
control mode and port is closed. When re-opening the serial port, if CTS
is enabled, then RTS must be re-enabled inside the driver.
