Greg,
I did some debugging and found 3.4 needs several patches to that made
exynos4 support common for exynos4 and exynos5. It appears some changes
made it into 3.4, at least changing the directory name from mach-exynos4
to mach-exynos, however the rest of the support is not in 3.4. I
identified the following commits:
6f9e95e6ed34ceff090ec1a1d27dfc85828d1dbd
60e49ca654eea42e04912b259fa36bad2c3e56ef
20ef9e08d27b3f5e09c32d4d371fa97f610a3069
b1b3f49ce4606452279b58b17f2bbe2ba00304b
Essentially every single commit that adds support for these config options:
diff --git a/arch/arm/mach-exynos/Kconfig b/arch/arm/mach-exynos/Kconfig
index b8df521..3be8f7c 100644

I am guessing you wouldn't want to make such extensive changes to 3.4 to
add full support for Chromebook.
3.10.y has full support for all of the above.
Thoughts. Agree with my assessment?
