If you're after upstream arm kernel folk, please Cc the linux-arm-kernel
mailing list (AKA LAKML):

  linux-arm-kernel at lists.infradead.org

... which should reach most people in that space.

You can subscribe to the list or view the archives at:

IIUC this is 32-bit arm, for which I'm not the best contact, but there
are a number of people subscribed to LAKML who should be able to help.

Thanks,
