Upstream will have initial support in 4.10 so the Pine64 will be
supportable to some degree in Fedora 26. I was hoping to get this in
F-25 but my workload and other things (Raspberry Pi for example) were
better usage of my personal time for the project. As to the level of
support in 4.10, there's a lot of cross over in the A64 SoC with some
of the H3 SoC in the OrangePi series, I'm not exactly sure. It will be
basic SMP/usb/MMC support at a minimum but could be also sound as
display.

Other than kernel there's bootloader support (arm-trusted-firmware and
u-boot) which I or someone needs to look into.

In terms of closed drivers..... we should be able to get some level of
X as to how accelerated that is... time will tell.
