I can't really test anymore, since all packages are updated now...but
evaluating (async-bytecomp-get-allowed-pkgs) gives me

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument listp async)
  cdr(async)
  (setq pkgs (cdr pkgs))
  (prog1 pkgs (setq pkgs (cdr pkgs)))
  (car-safe (prog1 pkgs (setq pkgs (cdr pkgs))))
  (let ((pkg (car-safe (prog1 pkgs (setq pkgs (cdr pkgs)))))) (if (memq pkg 
seen) nil (let ((pkg-desc (car (cdr (or ... ...))))) (if pkg-desc (progn (setq 
seen (cons pkg seen)) (setq pkgs (nconc pkgs (progn ... ...))))))))
  (while pkgs (let ((pkg (car-safe (prog1 pkgs (setq pkgs (cdr pkgs)))))) (if 
(memq pkg seen) nil (let ((pkg-desc (car (cdr ...)))) (if pkg-desc (progn (setq 
seen (cons pkg seen)) (setq pkgs (nconc pkgs ...))))))))
  (let ((seen 'nil)) (while pkgs (let ((pkg (car-safe (prog1 pkgs (setq pkgs

(progn (setq seen ...) (setq pkgs ...))))))) seen)
  async-bytecomp--get-package-deps(async)
  async-bytecomp-get-allowed-pkgs()

But it seems your patch did obsolete this function.  Could someone else
pls test?
