The last value written to a analog output channel is cached in the
private data of this driver for readback.

Currently, the wrong value is cached in the (*insn_write) functions.
The current code stores the data[n] value for readback afer the loop
has written all the values. At this time 'n' points past the end of
the data array.

Fix the functions by using a local variable to hold the data being
written to the analog output channel. This variable is then used
after the loop is complete to store the readback value. The current
value is retrieved before the loop in case no values are actually
written..

I'd have done:

	if (n)
		devpriv->ao_data[chan] = val;

and initialized val to 0 (in case the compiler issues a false "uninitialized" warning), just because it seems a tad more optimizable that way. It doesn't matter though; your way is fine too!
