A program to test your kernel for the vulnerability will be available Wednesday next week. But your kernel is probably vulnerable.
I'm curious whether recent Androids are easily vulnerable. It's plausible, although IMO unlikely, that they've done some SELinux or other mitigation that prevents the exploit from working. (I'm not entirely convinced that SELinux can block this one, though.)

Fixes already out for the usual distros.

Sandstorm appears to be safe. :)
