I can boot Linux on raspi3 with current upstream's level
of cprman support:

I'm not necessarily going to rule it out entirely, but I'm

that's very clearly "do something that Linux likes". I'd
really rather see hardware documentation here -- presumably
whoever is writing the Linux drivers has that?
