There are apparently incomplete clones of the HXD type chip in use. Those return -EPIPE on GET_LINE_REQUEST and BREAK_REQUEST. Avoid flooding the kernel log with those errors. Detect them during startup and then use the line_settings cache instead of GET_LINE_REQUEST. Signal missing break support via -ENOTTY.
