I think this is wrong (or at least suboptimal). The .start_tx callback
can be called even if transmission is already ongoing. In this case you
don't want to restart the rs485_start_tx_timer.

Do you really need two timers here? At each point in time there should
only be at most one of them active.

Best regards
