Oh, come on, I *know* you know the answer to this question.

How's your effort to get device vendors/oems to use newer (major)
kernels on their devices going?
Cause I was just recently *forced* into supporting 4.9 for another
couple years...
It's hard enough to get people to take stable version updates in a
reasonable timeframe.

We either need to get this in via 5.10 LTS, or it goes in via Android
Common Kernel...
going in via LTS always seems preferable to me, since it benefits the
wider community.
