Use canonical formatting when referring to commit:

I'd drop "First," and start with "When" and change "although" to "then"

Also, you should reflow the text to 72 chars per line.

To me it looks the whole function is too messed up to fix anything this 
easily. I'd start with splitting the two large ifs block so that the 
ordering makes sense:

- set_termios / uart_change_line_settings is called only once
- rx and tx is started only after set_termios
- failure path (the one doing uart_shutdown) logic is reverse + gotoed
