Indeed, the code for this driver is located in ni_670x.c in the
linux/staging tree.

The size of the source code seems limited (~400 lines) and it seems
there is no asynchronous functionalities (no cmd only instructions);
so, I think that this port should not be too difficult. It should only
be literal translation of the Comedi functions calls into the analogy
ones.

I was not informed of any port for this driver.
