The "sudo make install" command failed without this patch, at least on Ubuntu 20.04.
It is the same pull request as this one: gschorcht/spi-ch341-usb#16.

Just for info for other people having the same problem, the failure gave the following message:

$ sudo make install

Creating symlink /var/lib/dkms/i2c-ch341-usb/1.0.0/source ->
                 /usr/src/i2c-ch341-usb-1.0.0

DKMS: add completed.

Kernel preparation unnecessary for this kernel.  Skipping...

It is a common issue. It would be good if it was in the master.
