Jumping in as I happen to read this...

For DACs we often do it in kernel as potentially there is a circuit dependent aspect.
In extreme case leading to the bad kind of smoke. Normally it is covered by an
output-range pair, but can't do that here as it is relative to vref (which
we have no way of knowing in the binding). 

For input devices it is always a userspace thing to control.
