[PATCH] USB: serial: pl2303: account for deficits of clones

From: Jan Kiszka
Date: Sun Sep 01 2024 - 17:11:50 EST


From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx>

There are apparently incomplete clones of the HXD type chip in use.
Those return -EPIPE on GET_LINE_REQUEST and BREAK_REQUEST. Avoid
flooding the kernel log with those errors. Rather use the
line_settings cache for GET_LINE_REQUEST and signal missing support by
returning -ENOTTY from pl2303_set_break.
