uart: Fix bug in {uart8250, uart8250_mem, ns16550}_rx_byte functions
We have several different UART implementations of which three support a
timeout when receiving characters. In all of these three implementations
there is a bug where when the timeout is hit the last received character
will be returned instead of the needed 0.
The problem is that the timeout variable i is decremented after it has
been checked in the while-loop. That leads to the fact that when the
while-loop is aborted due to a timeout i will contain 0xffffffff and not
0. Thus in turn will fool the following if-statement leading to wrong
return value to the caller in this case. Therefore the caller will see a
received character event if there is none.
