Oops, you're right, I forgot about the 2010 and 2015 cards.  Those
are the only two Ultra320 devices that are asr.  As for the asr
driver, it really needs someone with a lot of available time and
interest.  As I saw many times, I'm quite happy to provide my notes
and on-going support to anyone who wants to work on this driver,
but I don't have the time to work on it myself.
