yes, it _only_ works on lxrt (rtai)

No.

I propose (ask) that having to have this driver in comedi and having a port to
xenomai, it would be nice to have it in xenomai. Alexis Berlemont did a good
job, but my incompetence to test it block me it continue in this path.

No, but I will have to do it in some time .....
