Quickly gave this another test by just connecting two ports of a CH348 device
together and making sure data arrives unchowdered at the other end when sending
at full speed with various baud rates. Seems to work about as well as I
expected my jumper wires to hold up at higher baudrates.

I'll likely use this to lessen the pile of active USB-to-serial devices on my
desk while working, so many thanks for keeping up the good work on the driver.
That way it'll also get some more in-depth real world testing in th e coming
weeks, but I doubt it needs more testing at this stage.
