Android patches were never really in the mainstream kernel.  It was in
the staging tree which is like a experimental branch for dumping random
patches in for a while and hoping that it will get picked up, reviewed
and merged eventually.  Sometimes it works but other patches get dropped
routinely.  Android patches were dropped after Google developers didn't
respond to patch reviews discussing technical issues for a while.
