That's great.  You mentioned working against 3.14.  Do you have any
plans to move onto the current version?  That would be a prerequisite
for upstream acceptance.
FWIW, it's also a good strategy to do the initial bringup on the latest
kernel and then backport to the older one for product work, otherwise
you end up doing the forward port twice, and it's almost always harder
than a backport.
Hmmm, I was told to target 3.14, because that's what we plan to support.

Maybe I can push one driver at a time?
Normally you would start with minimal chip support, just enough to
configure memory and a uart, then add drivers for various devices one by
one.

New ARM systems are expected to use DT, so you should also be switching
to that if you haven't already.
