The comedi core does the sanity checking of the comedi_insn before
calling the (*insn_write). Remove the unnecessary checks.

I thought you might have updated this function to handle the insn->n > 1
case as well.  Maybe in a follow-up patch?

There are a couple that have the insn->n > 1 issue. For some of them I have
not located a datasheet/user manual to verify the proper way to handle
multiple writes to the DAC. I will fix those in follow-up patches.

In such cases, it's probably better just to write the last data value, rather than the first.
