Mainline Linux kernel on the NanoPi2

Hi,

I'm interested in using the NanoPi2 for an upcoming embedded project, and
would like to know whether upstream (e.g. 4.3+) Linux kernel support is
present / planned.

My prioriy would be to have working uboot, SD card access, micro-USB gadget
and wifi (AP6212, possibly supported by
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/brcm80211/)

Graphics support is not needed, so I'll gladly go without any binary
graphics drivers.

Has anyone tried an upstream kernel on the NanoPi2, or would I be better
off going with C.H.I.P from Next Thing Co.?

According to https://linux-sunxi.org/Wifi#Ampak_Devices , Wifi should be
supported by the brcmfmac module in the mainline kernel. I guess I'll try
my luck and see what I can get working.

I'm also going to be trying to get my NanoPi2 up to mainline soon. I'd be
keen to hear how you get on.

I'm also waiting for mainline kernel delivery for S5P4418, although it's
hardware reference manual seem to be less information such as Jtag core
sight... I want to have a S54418 board which has JTAG debug for developing
firmware, RTOS porting ...
