Either C54x architecture is more limited (no MMU? no space for multitasking core like DSP BIOS?) or this is really quick student hack for G-SoC without deep research for existing alternatives. > We do already have a Linux Ti toolchain ( > https://www-a.ti.com/downloads/sds_support/targetcontent/LinuxDspTools/index.html) > which is for the C55x only (i.e. is useful to us).

Well the EULA says that it should be used only with TI development board (without exact definition what it is) so I am not sure that open source code can be compiled with it and result published for usage with 770 or N8x0 even if our tablets contain silicon made by TI and it is non-profit. Perhaps more friendly licencing terms similar to this C54x toolchain would be nice to have for our C55x toolchain too.
