The Linux development organization is positioned as a group effort, but it?s very much ARM?s baby.

If Linaro's focus is on kernel development, then Intel will benefit as much as ARM, baring ARM-specific driver code, which should be rather minimal.

Privided MeeGo takes off.
And the development will be very much with ARM in mind.

They'd get away with doing so fine if they're just writing drivers for ARM-specific CPU components and ARM initialisation, but other than that they'll need to write generic code, otherwise upstream will reject it.
So basically, anything which benefits ARM embedded will benefit x86 embedded (as laughable as it is).
