You could just as well give up then. :). You need product datasheets for
this. You could reverse engineer parts of it, but not in 7 days.

Tell him you'll move to another chip manufacturer if he doesn't give
them (datasheets) out, possibly under NDA, and you might have a chance.

Also, don't forget most Linux programmers will prefer open source
drivers, so if you want closed-source drivers, you'll lose quite some
interested developers, too...

And yes, that's all political. That's Linux.
