After applying this patch, I can't see any spurious AT or ~x~ > symbols on the console anymore. I've also looked into the possibility of barebox emulating a USB-Serial port and showing up as a ttyUSB device under Linux. Apparently the two most popular chips are FTDI's and Prolific's, but both have taken steps in the past to make their Windows drivers not work with cloned chips[1][2]. I figured the safest to emulate would be the chip used safely in these Chinese Arduino Knock-offs because they're so prevalent and stumbled upon the CH340. Its drivers are mainline for Linux, but for other platforms, they need to be downloaded manually. Seeing that the change to 'fix' barebox ttyACM is just two lines, I settled for that instead. It might be possible to get rid of the control interface descriptor altogether, but I don't know whether it would impact the portability across operating systems, so I've opted for this less invasive patch. Only tested on Linux v5.2 so far.
