CP210x hardware disables auto-RTS but leaves auto-CTS when
in hardware flow control mode and UART on cp210x hardware
is disabled. This allows data to flow out, but new data
will not come into the port. When re-opening the port, if
auto-CTS is enabled on the cp210x, then auto-RTS must be
re-enabled in the driver.

Move inside the if block (after the comment).

Maybe drop the "allows data to flow out" bit, the uart has been disabled
after all, right? And RTS is asserted on open by the TTY layer anyway so
data should flow in once opened.

As I asked you before, could you be more specific about what state
RTS-line end up in when disabling the UART (e.g. 0x00: statically
inactive)?

Again, this line is not needed.

You still need to break this line.
