Well, there are real phones with mainline Linux: Nokia N900, N9, N950,
Motorola Droid 4.

Current kernel is 4.13, not v4.9.

Yes, Qualcomm is a problem. There are other vendors, you can get those
phones in retail. So no, I don't think android community is doing a
good job. I don't think it makes sense to merge patches that "help
debugging" when basic support is missing.
