Hi,

it is rather drastic a measure to duplicate a driver just for a low
number of devices. It makes fixing bugs double the work. At a minimum,
before we look at the code itself, could you please explain why

a) the code cannot be added to cdc-acm?
b) the check for SMBIOS is needed?

	Regards
		Oliver
