LOL! Do you see here a single reference of A64: http://linux-sunxi.org/Mainlining_Effort
Depending on how clever the Pine64 people are you'll be either stuck at 3.10.65 forever or get support in Mainline kernel/u-boot sometimes in 2016 (and if they manage to do the impossible then you'll be able to use HW accelerated video in Linux with Mainline kernel, too
)
