Thanks, it's a great addition to have !

A test on GXL/GXM (VIM1 or VIM2) & GXBB (Odroid-C2) devices is lacking before we
can merge this.

If I find some time, I'll have a try, but everyone is welcome testing this serie
and report if it still works fine for them.

Vyacheslav, do you think you can test on your JetHub devices ? it would validate GXL & AXG.
