> Qualcomm has been upstreaming Linux kernel support for the Snapdragon X for the past 2 years or so, but the community is still having issues with drivers and firmware on devices.

Is QCM slow to upstream or are they doing things in an incomplete manner or is there some other reason?

I'm trying to imagine a world where intel or amd releases a new platform/chip and it takes _two years_ to get linux booting on it
