That is more on the darker side of gray here.

Looking at the stable-kernel-rules [0] the criteria is
  "It must either fix a real bug that bothers people or just add a device ID"

This change instead is adding a new feature to allow said flashing from a
running system.

sidenote: please don't post new versions as replies to previous versions,
as that confuses tooling a lot.
