We worked to adapt 3.0.7 mm packages to MX5 and MX28 (it was minor 
changes, mainly for kernel api and Makefile, fixes that we faced during 
the yocto integration).

I'm working on a complete test of this version on imx53qsb and imx28evk 
internally, and I'm sure it will generate some bugfixes that will be 
integrated on master as soon as test cycle is done.

My plan is to have it on master, so more people will be able to test it 
for more boards, (my test range is imx53qsb and imx28evk. and it do not 
include any imx6)

It's the first time I see a MM package that is supposed to support so 
many boards, I would like some help on testing it as much as possible.

I removed the old MX5 and MX28 mm packages because I believe 3.0.7 is 
good enough to support mx6/mx53/mx28. Do you think we need a "less 
aggressive" approach?
