I have point here all the vendors working on Android are now targeting
their so called open source maintance only targeted towards kernel
maintained on Googles code base git.android.kernel.org.

For example for the same above kernel/tegra ,compare the board
files(board-harmony.c) from same vendor in android.kernel.org
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=history;f=arch/arm/mach-tegra/board-harmony.c;h=9e305de56be9ac28ab023dbfc4f748c5f260bec1;hb=f6f94e2ab1b33f0082ac22d71f66385a60d8157f
and in mainline kernel.org for the same vendor board file I see
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=kernel/tegra.git;a=history;f=arch/arm/mach-tegra/board-harmony.c;h=ee01dd0ae7cd16ae6d207a540d875d3516d53797;hb=linux-tegra-2.6.36

This i dont really understand why.This is the same in case of other
key chipset vendors.
