Neither Fremantle will run on Android kernel nor Android will run on Fremantle kernel.

I think that sorta sums it up good enough.
As on Harmattan, the systems runs okay enough even with Android drivers enabled and loaded - no app uses them, so they're left well alone

And the same situation in reverse - on my Android device, I can stop Zygote, take control of the framebuffer, and start Xorg with the GNU Userland from a terminal.

Assuming that Android runs inside Maemo via ParallelDroid, and static PM support isn't available, Maemo's (IMO superior) dynamic power control will reign supreme.
