Just like I think Marc already responded, It's simply a matter of
resources; the upstreaming team isn't as large as the product team.

I don't believe so, no.

The main features I can think of are:

* Various power/performance optimizations.
* Various IO controllers on newer chips (such as SATA, Tegra124 PCIe,
USB3), although there are patches sent for all of these now. NOR flash,
I2C/SPI slave mode, one-wire, perhaps a few other minor IO controllers.
* Various features in supported IO controllers (e.g. high-speed eMMC/SD
modes, USB2 bus suspend, ...)
* USB device mode.
