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.
