Can you add prints to track the "sc->sc_d1r_fifo_keep_len" and "sc-

i4b_filter.h is not the right place to do this.

My I4B falls back to HDLC emulation if hardware HDLC is not provided by the
driver.

Possibly some FIFO status bits are not cleared like they should, and then the
stream stops.
I know that some chips have a filter which stops the stream on HDLC idle
bytes.
It might also be worth to try dumping the register from which the HSCX_LEN
comes from, if it is 2x32=64 bytes, because I mask that value with 0x1F.
