Another important point is, this driver is also required and used for
Davinci family of devices (arch/mach/mach-davinci/).

That is really beside the point. If the code isn't ready yet, then
don't merge it.

When I asked about the beaglebone, I was given the impression that it
will be ready for v3.7-rc1.  But, as I know realize, at the current
rate, it might not even be ready for v3.8.

I don't mind waiting, but please make sure that whatever lands into a
release is really, truly working.

Indeed. This has been a problem with many of the TI patches in
general. People are working on separate product trees and then produce
patches for the mainline kernel that are poorly tested.

The requirement should be: Do your patch on an omap board then send the
patch from your omap board after booting your board with the patch :)
