I just ported over support for that chip variant from a forked and renamed
version of the DAC960 driver that IBM released.  I've never actually seen
the hardware.  The best thing would be to try to find if any person involved
with it is still at IBM.

Otherwise I could ask the person I ported the changes for what subdevice/vendor
his card has, but there might be more.
