However that capability was not announced with the UPF_SOFT_FLOW bit. When the port is opened with the default of XON enabled the driver configures that in the hardware. If userspace does not want XON/OFF (which is normally the case) it will use TCSETS to disactivate it. However the serial core optimises this to only notify the driver if someting imporant has changed, and for XON/XOFF thit is only if the driver declares UPF_SOFT_FLOW. So we end up with unwanted XON/XOFF in the data stream. The problem only occurs if nothing else needed to be set by termios, ie if the user space requested values are the same as the default values, except for XON/XOFF. Since the default speed is 9600 this means that the problem only occurs when requesting 9600, otherwise the call to the driver will be made to change the speed, and that will also clear the XON/XOFF. As 9600 is quite rare these days that probably explains why this hasn't already been seen. It also only occurs on the first port open after boot since the subsequent opens will use the "logical state" set by TCSETS but not communicated to the driver the first time.
