To be specific there needs to be a "programmers reference" documenting
the CPU and included peripherals to the level that drivers can be
maintained.

It does not need to be a fully complete reference. It's also
complemented by the published kernel source. But it needs to be at the
level that the kernel (and preferably uboot as well) source can be
understood why things are done the way they are.

It does not need to contain any hardware documentation, i.e. any
electical I/O details etc. If it does then that's a plus. Nor does it
need to contain any documentation on IP blocks for which you do not want
to see Linux support developed or maintained in the community.
