The cassini.ko driver is present in el5 and el6, but Red Hat dropped
support from RHEL7. If you want to use it on el7 then elrepo.org has
packaged the driver for el7, backported from kernel-3.10.63:
kmod-cassini-1.6-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64.rpm
At present it's in the testing repo so do let us know if you try it and
it works for you.
