Debian didn't move at all yet.
So we need to consider to move ahead for Artful.

Also the last release [1] is meant to tag along qemu 2.10, so it might
be worth in general to pick that up.

I checked the changes since [2] and they are mostly bug fixes anyway.
Standing out of these "mostly fixes", are a set of changes around:
- block write support
- New SLOF boot menu
- Allow >255 LUNs
But the Release Team can take a look at [3] for their own consideration.

Overall the changes are not "too much":
- 57 commits
- 62 files changed, 1077 insertions(+), 682 deletions(-)
- biggest part in terms of LOC is a rework/cleanup in netload
- list of changes [4] (no further Changelog file)

An approved exception would allow to fix this reported and many other
bugs (as seen in the commits) in what I'd hope to be a low risk update.

This is most of what we need, I'll prep a package in a ppa to get build,
install and test logs to make this a full FFE bug to get approval.
