As I'm working in this area, I can say that the biggest problem isn't binary only drivers but spotty mainline support of core features (provided that we're talking about Android phones, not iPhones or old Windows mobile stuff)

From where you're standing, what does the path to improving mainline support of core features look like? Aside from sheer volume of work are there other major challenges or opportunities? In the past I've hacked around adding stuff to Armbian kernels, but navigating a path to mainline seemed like a whole other job.
