The warning seems a bit spurious!

The whole mite.c driver and it's users are all a bit of a mess.

I did find the information about the "AI AO Select Register" in the National
Instruments PCI E Series manual:

-----

The AI AO Select Register contains 8 bits that control the logical DMA 
selection for the
analog input and analog output resources. The contents of this register are 
cleared upon power
up and after a reset condition.
        Address:        base address + 0x09
        Type:           write-only
        Word size:      8-bit

        Bit     Name            Description
        7-4     Reserved        Reserved-Always write 0 to these bits (for 
PCI-6032E
                                and PCI-6033E only).
        7-4     Output<D..A>      Analog Output Logical Channel D through 
A-These four
                                bits select the logical channels of the MITE to 
be used by
                                the analog output. You can only set one of 
these bits at a
                                time (except for the PCI-6032E and PCI-6033E).
        3-0     Input<D..A>       Analog Input Logical Channel D through 
A-These four
                                bits select the logical channels to be used by 
the analog
                                input. You can only set one of these bits at a 
time.

Based on this the ni_stc_dma_channel_select_bitfield() function appears to be
incorrect. The "channel"s should only be in the range 0 to 3 and result in a 
returned
bitfield of:

        channel bitfield        Description
        0               0x01    Analog Input or Output Channel A
        1               0x02    Analog Input or Output Channel B
        2               0x04    Analog Input or Output Channel C
        3               0x08    Analog Input or Output Channel D

Just my two cents...

Apparently, the M-series cards have six DMA channels - two more than the E-series cards. They must have decided to keep the existing bitfield encoding for the first four channels for backwards compatibility, and use special bitfield values for the extra channels.
