Sounds good. I'll bump BORINGSSL_API_VERSION where relevant for you
all in future then. I'll leave cleaning up any old codepaths to you,
since I don't know how far back you want to go.

Is there anything else you need from me w.r.t. the updated patch, or
is it good to go? external/boringssl on AOSP master is now updated
past the point where BORINGSSL_API_VERSION is defined, so that should
be all good.
