It's for a Motorola 56000 (aka DSP56000 or DSP56K) processor, which is a different architecture but maybe with some similarities. I doubt we have any of the necessary tools but the code is short enough to hand- assemble. However, as I understand it, this source was written by the same person as the driver and the binary that is embedded in it, and should assemble to exactly the same bits.
