That's great that you found and referenced my proof-of-concept patches, but it doesn't seem like you tried to understand why this hasn't been merged yet. First, as the commit message you refer to below explain, we need some way to describe multiport controllers. Just dropping the 'serial' node does not make that issue go away. Second, and more importantly, you do not address the main obstacle for enabling serdev for USB serial which is that the serdev cannot handle hotplugging. > [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/johan/usb-serial.git/log/?h=usb-serial-of > [2] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/johan/usb-serial.git/commit/?h=usb-serial-of&id=b19239022c92567a6a9ed40e8522e84972b0997f Johan
