No, but it's OK :-)

I meant I need additional code for a) ARM and MIPS-based boards (off the
shelf by Ubiquity, Gateworks etc., support ported mostly from OpenWRT),
b) custom hardware used only by us.

I hope to eventually submit a) upstream, then arm-soc and Linus' trees
would work for me. I know it's a mess, but for now I have no options.

BTW the situation with hardware supported only by OpenWRT is a part of
the equation.
