I'm definitely getting in over my head with my current knowledge/capability, but I'm thinking this would be a really cool project to work on for a few months or so. My idea is the following:
It seems that, so far, no one has been able to get a custom rom on the Moto X 2013 to use the low power cores at all, and from recent information it's pretty clear that the original Moto X will not get the MM upgrade. What I've also seen is stock-modified roms that use APKs from the more recent 2014 edition to get features such as "karate chop" for flashlight. Because of this, can it be assumed that the protocol for communicating with the low power chips is the same between the s4 pro and the 801? Could it be possible to take the Moto specific parts of the LP kernel (which the source for is widely available), put them into a marshmallow kernel that doesn't mess with the APIs used by Moto Voice and Active Display, compile an MM rom that runs on that kernel, and modify specific Moto apps to check for a different android version and model name?
