And I always thought that this is because Freescale does some BSP
in the background, then release a BSP with some kernel and
doesn't even try getting something included in "main" Linus,
a.k.a. into Linus' tree.

Hey, but that's better then Marvell, where you need to sign an
NDA to even access the documentation. With Freescale's doc (and
help of the community!) I was able to get some Freescale i.MX21
related drivers into Linus' tree.
