The latter seems like a feature to me, or at least the changelog doesn't give any rationale why it should go in now rather than waiting for the next merge window (i.e. why it's a bugfix, what the upside is to justify its inclusion now). How much testing has it had and what are the potential downsides?
WRT the new board (and new boards generally), I'm in two minds. On the one hand they are pretty low risk (can't regress anything else, at least not in this case), on the other we are 6 weeks past the close of the merge window and 2 from the release date, so we are pretty far along. Where do we draw the line?
FWIW, the Lime2 is very new, I had no expectations it would make it into 2014.10 - although I'd not complain if it does!
Seems unlikely the dts will make it into 3.17 either, so there's probably no rush. Anyone needing either can pick up the patches themselves until next release.
