Ah, I was wrong, sorry, it has been submitted to AOSP, but not merged
yet.  Here's the 4.14 patches queued up and ready to go:
	https://android-review.googlesource.com/q/topic:%22psi+4.14+backport%22+(status:open%20OR%20status:merged)

The 4.9 and 4.19 branches also have them queued up:
	https://android-review.googlesource.com/q/topic:%22psi+4.9+backport%22+(status:open%20OR%20status:merged)
	https://android-review.googlesource.com/q/topic:%22psi+4.19+backport%22+(status:open%20OR%20status:merged)

I talked to the developer this week and he said he was waiting for a few
of the remaining patches to be merged upstream first before merging to
AOSP to ensure that nothing diverged.  Hopefully that should happen in a
few weeks or so, after the merge window is open and maintainers reopen
their development branches.

thanks,
