Looks to have a stock XR17C154 PCI UART chip for communication, but for
some reason when provisioning the PCI IDs they swapped the vendor and
subvendor IDs. Otherwise this card would have worked out of the box.
Searching online, some folks seem to not have this issue and others do,
so it is possible only some batches of cards have this error.
Create a new macro to handle the switched IDs and add support here.

Please redo this without patch 1/2 as that would not make sense to
backport anywhere, but adding new device ids are allowed in stable
kernels. Also, as others pointed out, either convert them all or none
:)
Fair enough, posting v2 with only the second patch now.
Thanks,
Andrew
