    serial: nulldev: Implement "pending" function to fix tstc return "true" · b12907f2
    Wilson Lee authored
    
    In U-boot, serial_tstc was use to determine is there have a character in
    serial console that pending for read. If there is no "pending" function
    implemented in serial driver, the serial-uclass will return "true(1)"
    to indicate there have a character pending to read.
    
    Thus, read a character from nulldev serial will result in continuous
    getting -EAGAIN return which might lead system to hang.
    
    This commit is to fix a bug in nulldev serial which implement "pending"
    function in nulldev serial to always indicate there is no character in
    console that pending for read.
