Are you sure this doesn't create a race that leads to lost TX ready interrupts? For a single character, the TX FIFO very well may be empty again at the point in time IER_ETXRDY is enabled now. With the varying behavior of 8250/16x50 chips - some of which is documented in sio(4) - I'd expect there are many that no longer generate a TX ready at all with this change in place. In this case, receiving spurious interrupts (which ones? IIR_NOPEND? IIR_TXRDY?) with some devices appears to be the lesser evil.
