Yes. It will be used for Debian jessie (not yet released) and the
N900 related drivers are enabled in the armmp flavour. Unfortunately
it does not work together with thumb using userland because the
errata 430973 workaround is not enabled.

See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=768890

I guess it should be tried to change the workaround, so that it does
only change the behaviour of affected platforms. Otherwise its a
hard decision for distributions to enable the workaround.

DT support for N900's soundcard has been added in 3.16, so before
that the audio stuff didn't work at all.

I guess backporting this makes sense because of fewer "broken" DTB
files in the wild.
