USB: New USB ID for Belkin Serial Adapter

Can you add the USB IDs for the Belkin USB Serial adapter (P/N F5U257)
to the pl2303 driver in the Linux Kernel? Are you the appropriate person
to approach for this?

I recently purchased a Belkin USB Serial adapter (P/N F5U257) and found
that it didn't work. After a bit of experimentation I found that it
works with the pl2303 driver once the ID has been added. See attached
patch to fix this. Also attached is the output from lsusb -v just in
case you require any information from there.
