OK, I'll see what I can do. Is patch against 2.4.2 OK (pressing deadline -> I do
not have the time to uprade right now).

My need for it is to make it possible to wait until all characters has left the
FIFO (needed for autobaud detection), so perhaps a ioctl RTIOC_DRAIN (similar to
RTIOC_PURGE) is a better choice (you decide what you prefer, and I'll try to
implement it)
