`devpriv->ao_timer` is used while an asynchronous command is running on the AO subdevice. It also gets modified by the subdevice's `cmdtest` handler for checking new asynchronous commands, `usbduxsigma_ao_cmdtest()`, which is not correct as it's allowed to check new commands while an old command is still running. Fix it by moving the code which sets up `devpriv->ao_timer` into the subdevice's `cmd` handler, `usbduxsigma_ao_cmd()`. Note that the removed code in `usbduxsigma_ao_cmdtest()` checked that `devpriv->ao_timer` did not end up less that 1, but that could not happen due because `cmd->scan_begin_arg` or `cmd->convert_arg` had already been range-checked. Also note that we tested the `high_speed` variable in the old code, but that is currently always 0 and means that we always use "scan" timing (`cmd->scan_begin_src == TRIG_TIMER` and `cmd->convert_src == TRIG_NOW`) and never "convert" (individual sample) timing (`cmd->scan_begin_src == TRIG_FOLLOW` and `cmd->convert_src == TRIG_TIMER`). The moved code tests `cmd->convert_src` instead to decide whether "scan" or "convert" timing is being used, although currently only "scan" timing is supported.
