Big companies like Samsung should have more than enough resources and interest in doing so. Unlike the guy who answered you at Kernel Recipes, I guess.

When mainline tells you "your hardware is broken", what kind of contributions do you expect exactly?

I don’t believe arm has this problem. They are careful to ensure the same instruction set is available on all cores in the chip. This is a botched launch from intel. Software is not the solution.

Samsung once had this problem with their in-house cores.
