Right, with the current implementation you need to make sure that
termios reflects the device state on open or your changes will never
actually enable software flow control in the device.

No, I didn't mean that IXON should be disabled by default. I meant that
the driver should make sure that the device settings matches termios on
open, not the other way round.

This unusual implementation has caused a number of issues in the past
and it's been on my list fix up for some time. I finally got around to
that today and I just CCed you on the result. That should simplify
adding software flow control and allow more code to be shared with the
hardware flow-control handling.

I've pushed a branch for you here:
