Hi Arnd,

The TX interrupt is marked as edge triggered, so it will
already be acked by the top-level irq code, and does not
need the ack in the driver.

Removing this avoids a nasty dependency on the regs-irq.h
file that is otherwise reserved for the interrupt controller
driver.

I haven't looked at the ks8695 in quite a while...
But I recall that this was very problematic at the time. Without this being
done after each character it was very easy to get the transmitter to "hang" -
and stop wanting to send any more characters.

I'd like to test this before acking.

Regards
Greg

xmit->tail = (xmit->tail + 1) & (UART_XMIT_SIZE - 1);
