Currently I'm testing these patches in tandem with PSI monitor that
I'm developing and test results look good. If things go well and we
start using PSI for Android I will try to upstream the backport. If
upstream rejects it we will have to merge it into Android common
kernel repo as a last resort. Hope this answers your question.
