You appear to have a different device than the one Anton reported (e.g.
PL2303GS instead of PL2303GC), but the fix is similar and was
merged in March as I just mentioned in my other mail.

Just make sure you update to a recent mainline or stable kernel (e.g.
5.17.2, 5.16.19, 5.15.33 or newer) or wait until your distro kernel
catches up.

The commit you need is

	5b6ab28d0678 ("USB: serial: pl2303: fix GS type detection")

if you want to report it to the distro.
