    Small correction: The Linux kernel has long had support for the ARM926EJ-S core. What's new is support for the Hisilicon SD5203 SoC which uses this core.

        In case anyone is wondering, the HiSilicon SD5203 is used in the Huawei MA5675M router. I'm surprised because I wasn't aware that HiSilicon releases any info on its processors, but maybe low-powered chips for routers are different.

        I'm pretty sure that all the new Librem 5 stuff in Linux 5.10, Purism has already added to their current Linux 5.7 kernel for the Librem 5, but cool to see it making it to mainline so quickly. I preordered the Librem 5 to support Purism's software development.

        Is the extra nVidia Tegra support due to nVidia's recent documentation dump?

          At around roughly the same time Nvidia registered a FCC id for an SXM-2 module with the not that much self explaining code sequence PG209.
