Very interesting. I just started a project using the Nuvoton N32926,
and mainline support in a recent kernel would be very, very
interesting. I'd be glad to join your effort by testing your code, and
possibly contributing.

What bootloader are you using? AFAIK Nuvoton does not provide any sort
of U-Boot, barebox or any other open source bootloader.

Do you have any working configuration for the N32926? Boot+UART, I don't
expect much at this early stage, but I'd like to test it as soon as you
have one.

Oh, and... any plans for supporting the H.264 decoder on the N32926?

Thank you very much for the work you've done so far!
