+      <p>Work on initial support of the IFC6410 board,which was
+	stopped due to bricked bootloader, has been started again.
+	This board has the Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 SoC, featuring the
+	Krait CPU.  This CPU is considered a "platform" for use in
+	smartphones, tablets, and smartbook devices.  Krait has many
+	similarities with the ARM Cortex-A15 CPU and is also based on
+	the ARMv7 instruction set. These peripherals are working:</p>

+      <ul>
+	<li>Qualcomm High Speed UART driver for MSM 7000/8000 series
+	  chips (included in <tt>src</tt> tree)</li>
