As Michael Krufky pointed out to me off-list, I was not exactly correct here.

While there are indeed drivers based on the same FX2 chip in your
device, it may be possible to reuse an existing driver, or you may
need a whole new driver, depending on how much the firmware varies
between your product versus the others.  You may want to look at the
pvrusb2 and cxusb drivers, which also use the FX2 chip, and see what
similarities exist in terms of the API and command set.  If it is not
similar to any of the others, then writing a new driver is probably
the correct approach.
