it's very possible to get linux to run on a processor without having implemented al functionality. You can just not support some onboard peripherals yet and have to do some things inefficiently in software. You don't need good power management to simply be "running", etc.

Getting linux to run is the first step, not the last. It's the barest minimum you could do to have a product to sell. Running well, taking advantage of all hardware features properly is a whole different game.
