The kernel now works fine on N9, but, as you said, there is not enough motivation in upstreaming it. IIRC, it seems that many bits depend on closed source user space, and so are probably unsuitable for upstreaming (probably will not be accepted upstream)?
Also, probably the first step to upstream more code is to replace most of N9 board file with device tree equivalant.

hmmm... the kernel supports N9 completely (IIRC), but I'm not sure if it supports Harmattan too. I've not tried it, and don't remember if it is supposed to work there. Is there anything you are hoping to get under Harmattan with the new kernel? It was manly needed to support new versions of SFOS and Nemo.

The Nitdroid kernel supports same feature set as the "default" PR1.3 Harmattan kernel...
