General driver issues should probably be discussed on tech-kern@, I don't 
see this one being particular specific to embedded systems.

Questions you may ask yourself (and which you may answer for a SoC 
applications):

   * Is it a port of software, or a rewrite? (remember: No GPL in the
     Kernel!)
   * How will it integrate into NetBSD? (Userland, Kernel, Patch set...)
   * What interfaces in NetBSD will it use?
   * Are you familiar with those interfaces?
   * Do you have any prior experience with programming NetBSD?
     In what area? If did send some problem reports (PRs) or patches,
     please include references.
