Support for the XR21V1414 (and the rest of the XR21V141x family) was
added to the mainline Linux kernel in version 5.13 via the xr_serial
driver [1]. Since CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_XR has been enabled as a module
in the Debian kernel since 5.15-1~exp1 [2], the hardware has been
working out of the box on bookworm and later.
Closing this RFP as the functionality is provided by the kernel on
Debian.
