OMAP3 support is available has ben mainline kernel for years in the
mainline kernel, I would say since at least 2.6.31. The problem is more
board support for the specific board this user wants, and drivers. But
as I said, adding this support if you have it for another kernel is
easier than adapting I-pipe support.
