From: Major Hayden major@mhtx.net Date: Fri, 23 Feb 2018 14:29:54 -0600 Subject: USB: serial: ftdi_sio: add RT Systems VX-8 cable
From: Major Hayden major@mhtx.net
commit 9608e5c0f079390473b484ef92334dfd3431bb89 upstream.
This patch adds a device ID for the RT Systems cable used to program Yaesu VX-8R/VX-8DR handheld radios. It uses the main FTDI VID instead of the common RT Systems VID.
