Daniel Golle 5745b7e815 uboot-mediatek: import patches improving menu navigation
Using the arrow keys to navigate the U-Boot menu often leads to being
dropped into the U-Boot shell unexpectedly.
This can be prevented in most cases by improving the logic to detect the
arrow key ESC sequence and only reprinting the menu if actually needed.
Also enable CONFIG_SERIAL_RX_BUFFER for all boards as it helps preventing
the remaining cases.

Subject: [PATCH 1/3] menu: fix the logic checking whether ESC key is pressed
It's observed that the bootmenu on a serial console sometimes
incorrectly quitted with superfluous characters filled to command
line input:
> *** U-Boot Boot Menu ***
>
> 1. Startup system (Default)
> 2. Upgrade firmware
> 3. Upgrade ATF BL2
> 4. Upgrade ATF FIP
> 5. Load image
> 0. U-Boot console
>
>
> Press UP/DOWN to move, ENTER to select, ESC to quit
>MT7988> [B
Analysis shows it was caused by the wrong logic of bootmenu_loop:
At first the bootmenu_loop received the first ESC char correctly.
However, during the second call to bootmenu_loop, there's no data
in the UART Rx FIFO. Due to the low baudrate, the second char of
the down array key sequence hasn't be fully received.
But bootmenu_loop just did a mdelay(10), and then treated it as a
single ESC key press event. It didn't even try tstc() again after
the 10ms timeout.
This patch fixes this issue by letting bootmenu_loop check tstc()
twice.
