That's what I remember as well. Since some version I was not able to
significantly out-perform the usb-serial with my own driver, so I saw no

But these are 2 entirely different reasons. While the former can't be
solved with generic driver, the latter sure can. So the question is: why
not? Nobody cared, or there is some reason not to?
