pl2303 serial adapter no longer recognized

Hi,

After upgrading the Linux kernel to 5.13.0-27 my pl2303 device stopped working.

Error from dmesg:

jan 26 07:39:24 semalx0017 kernel: Linux version 5.13.0-27-generic (buildd@lgw01-amd64-045) (gcc (Ubuntu 9.3.0-17ubuntu1~20.04) 9.3.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.34) #29~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 14 00:32:30 UTC 2022 (Ubuntu 5.13.0>
...

jan 26 07:39:24 semalx0017 kernel: pl2303 3-5.1.3:1.0: unknown device type, please report to <email address hidden>

This works fine in the previous 5.11.0-27-generic kernel.

Probably this patch needs backporting
