It was not reverted; but it was merged right after v8. Then v9 was a
trimmed v8 and v10 is intended to resolve a few last nits from v9.

In other words, there are many changes (including the vast majority of
the `kernel` crate) that will come afterwards.

Please see the cover letter(s) for details.

Cheers,
Miguel
