Dear Kernel Team,

currently Ubuntu mainline kernels lack several options to have feature parity with Ubuntu kernels:

$ grep ASHMEM /boot/config-*
/boot/config-5.0.0-16-generic:CONFIG_ASHMEM=m
/boot/config-5.0.0-16-lowlatency:CONFIG_ASHMEM=m
/boot/config-5.1.6-050106-generic:# CONFIG_ASHMEM is not set

and

$ grep BINDER_IPC /boot/config-*
/boot/config-5.0.0-16-generic:CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC=m
/boot/config-5.0.0-16-generic:# CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC_SELFTEST is not set
/boot/config-5.0.0-16-lowlatency:CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC=m
/boot/config-5.0.0-16-lowlatency:# CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC_SELFTEST is not set
/boot/config-5.1.6-050106-generic:# CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDER_IPC is not set

So could you please enable those 2 options in mainline builds?

Thanks,

Laurent.
