[$] Running Android on a mainline graphics stack

Thatincludes the graphics subsystem, which avoids user-space components like Xor Wayland and has special (often binary-only) kernel drivers as well. Butthat picture may be about to change. As Robert Foss described in his OpenSource Summit North America presentation, running Android on the mainlinegraphics subsystem is becoming possible and brings a number of potentialbenefits.
