It's blocked by Herbert wanting to design the multibuffer hashing API in a more
complex way that doesn't make sense.  See the previous discussions.  I don't
know when Herbert will change his mind, so for now I've shifted my focus to the
Android kernels.  (In the mean time, the improvements that don't depend on the
actual multibuffer hashing API still make sense to apply upstream, though.)
