This patch (as1443) fixes a bug found in many of the USB serial
drivers: They don't set the .usb_driver field in their
usb_serial_driver structure. This field is needed for assigning
dynamic IDs for device matching.
In addition, starting with the 2.6.37 kernel, the .usb_driver field is
needed for proper autosuspend operation. Without it, attempts to open
the device file will fail.

The id_table field of the struct usb_device_id is constant in <linux/usb.h>
so it is worth to make the initialization data also constant.
The semantic match that finds this kind of pattern is as follows:

This driver got rescued from a few years ago and was requested to be
added. So I cleaned it up, ported it to the latest kernel version and
here it is.
