Hi (sorry for being late)!
It'd be nice add more support for this old platform, though I've to say that I've got inspiration from MT6572 patch series and this series is mostly based on that work.
BTW, I've tested this series together with mt6582 u-boot port (installed as 2nd stage bootloader), always derived from mt65xx u-boot work.
Since original port has been tested on mt6580 and mt6572, it's not too much hard making a port for sibling SoCs like mt6582 (done) and mt6592.
(I've also managed to boot successfully a 1st stage bootloader mt6582 u-boot port but I've not yet tried loading linux - and testing these patches - with that).
AS mt65xx platforms share many similarities, I hope more people could take part and extend mainline linux hardware support for mt6580, mt6572 and mt6582 as you wish.

In the meantime,

Thank You very nuch and 

Best Regards,

Cristian.

P.S. I've made a mistake about cover letter by making reference to a number of eight patches, while actually there are ten patches. BTW, that's not important at this point.
