I think it has. Looks like 4.4.y and 4.9.y are getting merged into Qualcomm's trees. And supposidly 3.18.y is as well, but I do not see _any_ device updating their 3.18.y kernel "in the wild" as I do not think any OEM cares about their 3.18.y based devices anymore :( For 4.4.y, it looks better, I am finally seeing updates happen, so while things are not where I would like to see them, it's better than it was a year ago. thanks, greg k-h
