There used to be a "generic" usb-serial driver that came included with
all Windows systems (back around Win2k time).  All that you had to do
was modify a .inf file to add some product and vendor ids to it in order
to have a working device.

Don't know if that's still there, but I guess we should write a gadget
usb-serial driver too...
