This patch adds System MMU nodes to all defined devices that are specific to Exynos5420/5800/5422 series.
Apologies in advance if Thunderbird mangles this message; my usual mail configuration has suffered an unfortunate run-in with a mug of tea.
As someone who has devoted a few weekends trying to make the mainline kernel usable on an Odroid XU2, I can't help but notice that nearly every patchset that has hit this list recently excludes the Exynos 541x devices, including series which appear to go out of their way to support older devices. I would attribute this to the lack of publicly accessible documentation, but many of these patches are coming from Samsung employees. Worse, the few patches that have been submitted for the 5410 have languished in queue-purgatory. What is going on with support for this silicon?
These devices really aren't that old but if Samsung insists that they aren't worth putting engineering time towards then perhaps they could at least release documentation? The Hardkernel folks are on the record[2] as saying there was a document under review. Perhaps this document could be quickly trimmed into a disclosable state? Even a quick-and-dirty documentation release would help my efforts substantially.
