I am not sure.  I believe there is a size limit on the id field (2
characters), and for USB serial ports the device would be ttyUSB0 (see
#477656), it is not obvious for me why the file claim that the id need
to match the device name.  Perhaps the MUST should be changed to a
SHOULD?

Happy hacking,
