I know this one has a large installed base, and that Intel were at
least working on it for a while after upstream contributions stopped.
However, my impression was that the port was never completed
upstream before the acquisition, and that the new owners had no
interest in working with us. In particular, none of the later Axxia
SoCs (ppc32/axe3500, arm64/axm5600, arm64/axc6700) ever got
submitted for inclusion as far as I can tell.
The latest public source code I found is at https://github.com/axxia/,
but this is a heavily patched linux-4.9, see
https://github.com/axxia/axxia_yocto_linux_4.9/commits/fa03c456641
My interpretation of this was that whoever is using Axxia chips
is no longer interested in upgrading to newer kernels or using
anything remotely resembling the code we have uptream.

That would be great, thanks for the offer.
