ASM is darn good for some tasks. Generally tasks that require small memory footprints, or have to run on fairly low powered devices fair well in assembler.
As far as writing hardware drivers - most of it can be done in C quite happily. Typically you'd just write small segments (time critical or sensitive) in assembler.
