MALI kernel driver is a separate module, built out-of-tree.

It's integrated in the linux-sunxi.org tree for convenience and
maintenance reasons only, but it really have no business being in the
kernel tree.

In the SDK the mali kernel driver is in lichee/linux-3.3/modules/mali/

Not sure where the actual driver (userspace) is... if there even is one
for Linux sun7i. The copy in buildroot looks old. The Android SDK seems
to include mali libraries but...

But Allwinner can probably provide you the needed libraries for linux
use if you ask.
