Hi all,
in this months i tryed (without succeed) many times to use mainline kernels on my A20 because i need to use USBTV007 driver module present in kernel from 3.11.
In this latest days i followed a new way (at least for me): Driver Backports (https://backports.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Pagel)
in my case i needed first of all to rebuild sunxi-3.4 kernel disabling v4l and v4l2 features, after i used backports-3.13.2-1 following Cross Compiling instructions (https://backports.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Documentation#Cross_compiling) so added builded backports modules(it also build v4l2 subsystem) into a new folder under lib/modules/3.4.67+/kernel/drivers
it work fine also using vdpau :)
i hope that this could help others that have similar problems
