Maybe.  I'm not sure what has been publicly disclosed on efforts in
this area.

: the datasheet,

This datasheet sucks.  It says nothing interesting for a programmer,
except maybe some minor clues...

This driver has at least some binary components.  The source is mostly
glue, but there is some interesting info in that for someone that has
the time to dig into it.  The source is kinda ugly and poorly
commented, but it is better than the datasheet for information.  At
least it wasn't obfuscated, so some data might be able to be mined
from it.
