I wonder why the type of card has anything to do with this driver.
It should be transparent, the driver should be able to provide the
matrix (APM/AQM/ADM)
independently from the type of card in the slot.
Would also be interested why this is limited to certain, newer cards.
Did some kind of interface change (I dimly recall something like that),
or are simply no old systems with those older card types around to check
whether it works?

That was a restriction recommended by our crypto architect.


In either case, a short note would be good (does not need to go into
any details).

I can do that.
