Restarting the transmitter even if the circ buffer is empty may be
necessary to push out remaining data when the port is restarted after
being stopped.

v3:
 - changed this patch to not always enable the transmitter, but keep the
   check for uart_tx_stopped() in place, as suggested by Peter, whose
   explanation I also stole for the new commit message (thx)
