johnme@: Please don't revert Chromium patches because of Clankium failures. Clankium depends on Chromium, not the other way around. Chromium engineers do not have visibility into Clankium, but Clankium engineers /do/ have visibility into Chromium. The correct way to proceed is to fix the errors in Clankium. I am going to revert your revert.
Copying from the other bug (issue 617129): Since this broke our clank ToT builders and the patch included changes to Android specifically, I think reverting was an okay course of action (although the downstream fix did end up being simple). I'm okay with the revert of the revert followed in quick succession by a fix.
Thank you for the clarification. I was not aware that Clankium tracks Chromium this closely. I will attempt to submit both Chromium and Clankium changes at about the same time in the future.
