So the plan is to only have sunxi-3.4 on one side and a "submitted
upstream" on the other side?

I'd welcome something intermediate, i.e. a branch that provides "the
most complete sunxi support in an uptodate kernel", and which is kept
uptodate (like sunxi-devel).

This could hold WiP for things that aren't ready for upstream submission
(and may languish in such a state for a long time, in case noone is
sufficiently motivated to refactor it for upstream).

I understand that.  But at the same time, many important uses of
Allwinner SoCs currently require the sunxi-3.4 kernel and the
corresponding feature may never end up upstream, yet using a 3.4 kernel
in 2020 is likely to be a source of annoyances.

How 'bout the consumer IR patches?
