USB: cypress_m8: allow unstable baud rates
I've got a crappy cypress converter here, and while running at higher baud rates craps out on throughput, it works fine with lower ones. While it'd be nice to simply use a lower baud rate, not all devices can be configured this way, and it is possible to (slowly) interact at higher rates by sending a byte at a time. So let people force higher rates when they need it via a module parameter. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
