  Richard reported that a serial port may end up sometimes with tx data
pending in the buffer for long periods of time.

Turns out we bail out early on any errors from pm_runtime_get(),
including -EINPROGRESS. To fix the issue, we need to ignore -EINPROGRESS
as we only care about the runtime PM usage count at this point. We check
for an active runtime PM state later on for tx.

Thanks, I can confirm that since we added this into our builds/tests
we've not seen the serial data go missing.

Cheers,

Richard
