Well the TI trees are also based on older snapshots of the linux-omap tree.

Ideally there would be only minimal lag between the linux-omap tree and
TI's product snapshot trees of course.

But you can actually use most of the omap boards with the linux-omap
tree, you may need to apply few driver patches and the PM support
varies.
