Shawn,  Thanks a lot for offering to help.

Sorry for a very delayed response as I was on vacation.  I have
recently been made responsible by the company to push and track the
upstreaming of all armv8 related software within the Digital
Networking group of FSL/NXP which is currently the only business unit
to use ARMv8 cores.  We also agreed in an internal discussion that it
will be good for me to also help organize patches for upstream
acceptance.  I think I can help to make it more effective in
communicating community requirements and feedback to all related
developers and their management.  And I can also help to enable the
internal test team to better test the staging patches before they hit
the mainline.

Regards,
Leo
