It would be nice if you be consistent across the commit messages and also
provide the names of the callbacks in full, because I dunno if we have a local
stop_tx() or rs485_start() or whatever the above means.

If it is "the rs485_start_tx() / rs485_stop_tx() callbacks.", it's
much clearer for the reader.

As per above.

toggling ?

So, why not call the parameter better to emphasize that it's about IRQ
toggling? bool toggle_irq ?
