Looks very nice overall. I think with the timing, it's a way too
late for 4.6 now, but there should be no problem merging this for 4.7.
I assume it's not urgent on your end, as this seems to be a somewhat
historic platform.

I had no idea there was an ARM9 based predecessor of OX820SE, so I was
surprised to see this one instead. How closely related are they?
