See the linux-arm-kernel mailing list for details. There seem to be a recent interest in mainline support for cirrus processors. Anyway, in case you wonder why we focus on mainline support only: because maintaining support for patched kernel is a major PITA and becomes obsolete fast. So, our current active development branch is Linux mainline, exclusively. We make an exception for the AT91 patch, because it is an "antichambre" of the mainline support for AT91, not a fork, and even then, we try hard to make an adeos I-pipe patch which applies with or without the AT91 patch. -- Gilles.
