sunxi-mali binary driver build by this recipe
(https://github.com/linux-sunxi/meta-sunxi/blob/master/recipes-graphics/libgles/sunxi-mali_git.bb)
only works with 3.4 kernel.
You can find some informations about sunxi-mali here :
http://linux-sunxi.org/Mali_binary_driver

The problem is that linux-sunxi 3.4.x kernel contains mali r3p0 driver
(https://github.com/linux-sunxi/linux-sunxi/tree/sunxi-3.4/drivers/gpu/mali)
where linux mainline doesn't.

We could maybe avoid the build of sunxi-mali recipe when a mainline
kernel is built.

Good job.
IMO it make sense to add C.H.I.P support in meta-sunxi, don't you think ?
