It needs to interact with the audio codecs and EC, so those bits need to be in the kernel. In user-space is the logic to load the language map and other bits into the kernel.

"Ok Google, can you let me boot this time?"
"No Google, not into Chrome OS, can't you see that SD card with a "ChromeOS kernel" partition? I've set the priority flag on it just the way you like it."
"By the way, Google, why is there network activity to google.com when I'm not using Chrome OS and haven't got a browser open?"
I couldn't find any information on the MT6358, but the MT8183 uses a G72 GPU, which doesn't have good support in Mesa at the moment, AFAICT.
But whatever you do, stay away from the MT8173, which has PowerVR graphics.
Instead consider something with an RK3399 (a few Chromebooks, as well as the Pinebook Pro), which has pretty good GPU support in Mesa.

Perhaps combine these kernel articles into 1? 5 separate linux 5.5 articles today.

This looks to me like keeping the mike on even in sleep mode to listen for the wake up word, but I assume they care more about the spyware capability.
Hopefully I'm wrong.
