Wasn't the linter thing just about moving the lint rules (for checking proper Android API usage) to a language-independent format so that they could be shared by Java and Kotlin? Previously they only worked for Java code.

You can watch the KotlinConf session video by Tor Norbye. It was what you said and more. To clarify, I meant they dropped Java internally for their own lint rules, not that they dropped support.
