If the serial device never reads data written to it (because it is "output only") then the write buffers will still be waiting for the URB to complete on close(), which will hang for 30s until the closing_wait timeout expires. This can happen with the ESP32-H2/ESP32-C6 USB serial interface. Changing the port closing_wait timeout is a privileged operation but flushing the output buffer is not a privileged operation. Implement the flush_buffer tty operation to cancel in-progress writes so that tcflush(fd, TCOFLUSH) can be used to unblock the serial port before close.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
