Merge other ARM based branches

Registered by Michael Hope

This blueprint has been superseded. See the newer blueprint "Merge OMAP board/device emulation from MeeGo tree" for updated plans.

There's a range of ARM focused QEMU branches done by various groups that improve on QEMU. Talk with those groups and see about consolidating similar to the kernel consolidation.

Relevant qemu trees:

http://git.qemu.org/qemu.git/ -- upstream
http://meego.gitorious.org/qemu-maemo -- maintained by the MeeGo folks
http://gitorious.org/ubuntu-qemu-omap/qemu -- the ubuntu qemu-maemo package: a couple of patches of delta from the qemu-maemo tree, plus packaging support
http://gitorious.org/samsung-linux-platform/samsung-platform-emulator -- the Samsung branch (local packaging and fixes in https://launchpad.net/~lool/+archive/ppa/+packages)
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/external/qemu.git -- the Android qemu (perhaps there are other branches too) may be worth investigating too (eg for cherrypicking commits which make fixes for various ARMv7 Neon and other issues)
