rk2918 support

I'm about to make a start bringing up Mer/Wayland (with the new 
Vivante DRM/Gallium3D driver) on an older tablet which uses the 
Rockchip rk2918 (aka rk29?) SoC.

I can't find any definitive information on whether there is support 
for this chip in the mainline kernel, I see rk2928 in the 
rockchip/Kconfig, but no mention of rk2918.

The "official" firmware is stuck on kernel 3.0.8, and there was a code 
drop which is available here:

https://github.com/DJNoXD/rockchip-kernel-rk2918

and also seems to be in this updated "generic" Rockchip 3.0.101 kernel 
here:

https://github.com/omegamoon/Rockchip-GPL-Kernel

If this isn't in mainline, is there any intention to get it in?  How 
much work would it be to get it forward ported along the lines of the 
other Rockchip SoC code?

I really don't want to be stuck on a really old kernel...
