Are there device drivers using system MMU at mainline? or example codes? In case of Marek's patches, he posted drivers codes and tested at multimedia stack. Another one is what's the difference between MFC drivers case and SystemMMU one? and I hope you read this mail thread. http://www.mentby.com/Group/linux-kernel/patch-maintainers-update-msm-maintainers.html Cite from Linus words. Actually, "the community" (not that there really is any such cohesive thing) generally asks that vendors be "involved". Not that vendors be "exclusively in control". There's a big difference. I feel you control the s5p codes for vendor purpose.
