I know it's superficial and there's definitely no specific details about bleeding, pressure, cables and the like, but the Shimano compatibility list (http://productinfo.shimano.com/download/pdf/com/2.7/en) does indicate compatibility between 9170 levers and older generation calipers (this is an answer I'm interested in as well)
They'll probably work, but no clue on the performance..
As far as I know there are no standards on pressure and stroke. So you could end up with totally the wrong lever feel and power modulation.
And the DA levers have a new bleeding system. No idea if it's compatible with the old calipers
