There is no legal problem sharing your source code, as long as you
don't distribute binaries compiled to the non-free driver. The only
social problem would be encouraging more people to use the non-free
drivers instead of demanding a free driver from NI, but it looks like
your code is encouraging people to look into the possibility of free
drivers, so it's probably beneficial if you share it.
