Heh. I guess it has been awhile.  :)

So yea, in recent months, work around Android with their GKI effort
has made it necessary for ION heaps to be loadable from modules. I had
some patches in WIP tree to enable this, and in the rework I did
yesterday for the CMA module trivially collided with parts, and
forgetting the discussion back in v3, I figured I'd just fold those
bits in before I resubmitted for v12.

If it's an issue, I can pull it out, but I'm going to be submitting
module enablement for review as soon as the core bits are queued, as
its going to be important to support for Android to switch to this
from ION.

thanks
