AndroidX core features the androidx.core.os.CancellationSignal type which backported the android.os.CancellationSignal type to API levels prior to 16. Now that the minimum supported API level of the AndroidX libraries is 19, this type can be deprecated.
However, it's not just that simple because this type is used in the public API elsewhere. Those usages should be migrated to accept the framework version before the AndroidX type is deprecated.
