Bull hockey ... they want *BOTH* mainline support and good PM.  :)

PM support is still cooking.  Support for other OMAP goodness
can -- and does! -- evolve in parallel.


Having a ZOOM fork to help roll goodies out of TI-internal trees
into mainline is fine -- TI has OMAP hardware for a long time before 
the chips go public -- but the goal should be to *help* and that means
both (a) tracking mainline, probably via linux-omap, and (b) pushing
goodies out of that ZOOM fork so they're more broadly available.

So for example the NAND acceleration stuff seems to have gone
nowhere ... while that ZOOM fork may have some updates, they've not
gotten into the main OMAP tree, or into mainline.
