staging: comedi: adv_pci1710: support external analog output reference
The analog outputs can use an external reference to create the D/A output range. Add an entry to the comedi_lrange table for it and modify the (*insn_write) to support it. Note that the D/A output range is 0 to +Vref with a -Vref. The comedi_lrange does not include the sign of the range. It simmply allows the user to convert between the 12-bit samples values (0x0000 - 0x0fff) and a physical value (0.0 to 1.0) using the comedilib comedi_to_phys() and comedi_from_phys() functions. A physical value of 0.0 would actually be 0V with a -Vref and -V with a +Vref and 1.0 would be +V with a -Vref and 0V with a -Vref. Ths user will need to work this out but at least they can now use the external reference.
