I will look into this as soon as I get some time for it... Thanks for pointer. Appreciated.

As this uses Allwinner's SoC too, I just made some small adjustments. I need to do some polishing and verifying it works, because I played a bit with some debug options, and I would like loos@ to look over it if he has some time (I wrote him privately, but no response yet). So I plan to submit it as a port in not too distant future, but if anybody needs it sooner, just write me. Milan
