Low Latency

Normally the UART will interrupt when the receiver has been idle for 4 character times. (For
example 4ms at 9600) As long as data is being received the UART will continue to buffer them
until its internal FIFO is full (~56 bytes). This flag causes the Edgeport to poll the RX FIFO for
received bytes. If any bytes are available they will be sent to the driver without any delay.
