Linux kernel is not directly exposed to userspace Android apps, so it is actually irrelevant.

In fact, starting with Android 7 they have started to lock down NDK apps that try to use APIs not listed as stable.

It is relevant as unless they replace both ChromeOS and Android kernels you lose the ability to run Android native on a ChromeOS box.
