Hi Michal,

> 
> When backend is in Xen, the handling of data written to DR register is a
> bit special because we want to tell guest that we are always ready for new
> data to be written (i.e. no real FIFO, TXFF/BUSY never set and TXI always
> set). This conflicts with the current handling of TXFE bit, which we
> always clear and never set on a write path (we happen to set it when we
> receive char from serial input due to use of vpl011_data_avail() but this
> might never be called). This can lead to issues if a guest driver makes
> use of TXFE bit to check for TX transmission completion (such guest could
> then wait endlessly). Fix it by keeping TXFE always set to match the
> current emulation logic.
