Ok, so it's not just the ashmem thing.

I think I'll do an rc8 with the revert, just so that we'll have some
time to figure this out. It's only Tuesday, but I already have 90
commits since rc7, so this isn't the only issue we're having.

I _prefer_ just the regular cadence of releases, but when I have a
reason to delay, I'll delay.
