Today is the hard freeze for 2.5 for new features. As the v14 patches
hit the list today, I will review them, and if they look good I can
pull patches into my tree. 

Whether there is an exception is really up to Peter Maydell
(added him to the cc) - if all looks good with the patches, I could
send a pull request out later today with them, but that will be late
in the evening for Peter.
