Doesn't the driver now control when the UART clocks are gated (using
runtime PM autosuspend)?

IMO, this check should be completely removed and the driver should
be managing this with the autosuspend timeout.

Sluggish in what way?

If the driver is runtime suspended, it should only be sluggish for the
first character.  After that, the autosuspend timeout should prevent it
from feeling sluggish.

This is a heavy operation to add for *every* entry into idle.
