Bug Description
Hi,
the USB UART chip CHG340G is used by many developer ESP2866 boards to connect to USB serial.
The standard kernel driver des support a lot of those CH340x chipset but it does currently not support the WDH CH340g with standard ch341 driver.
Nevertheless there exists a working driver from the vendor since yaers.

Is it possable to get the mainlaine driver updated to support CHG340G out of the box without patching recompiling custom kernel.
There are milions of CH340g chips on those ESP2866 boards out there.
