I was posting in response to Peter's ML message, not as part of the formal bug management process.
A Silicon Motion chip might still be used by the (MIPS-based) Lemote computers, and apparently some older Thinkpads. Link below suggests that some people are still tinkering with members of the range. http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.driver-project.devel/67338Do you know if any of them are in conjunction with 64-bit ARM CPUs? The removal request was just for arm64.
Don't know, I was highlighting that part of the Linux community is apparently still working on at least some members of this family of chips. Not knowing the extent to which any changes they've made are global, I suggest it would be worth talking to them.
