Public bug reported:

SRU Justification:

[Impact]

mlxbf_tmfifo driver does not always schedule work for VIRTIO CONSOLE
nottification. The result is with rshim console, the dmesg output would
be cut off or simply cat a big text file to stdout.

[Fix]

* Make sure TM_TX_LWM_IRQ bit is set when there is a notification of
virtio console event.

[Test Case]

* Compare the output of dmesg from rshim console and ssh session. Make sure 
both are the same.
* Issue is reproduced w/o fix and compare the same dmesg output from the same 
as above.

[Regression Potential]

The changes affect only virtio console event handling only and been
tested fully.

[Others]
This issue is the same on focal and Jammy.
