I might be wrong, but I a long tim eago someone/somewere told me that the
cosc card has no interrupt line, so interrupts don't work. That's way it
was still a polling driver. In november I wanted to do DMA but as there was
no solid DMA interface yet for the RPC I stopped and hoped that someone
was going to add it. In fact I had a message from Richard Earnshaw who asked
for a couple of evenings to sort it out. I am still waiting..., well I
stopped wating and stopped at all.

Don't get your hopes up as I have little time.
