It's permissible to have multiple Machine entries in a stanza, so if the only difference is that field then it's fine to just add a new one (a bunch of the kirkwood TS-xxx enties follow this pattern since they have a boardfile name and a DTB name). I wonder though if the DTB-Id field should be different? I think not on the basis that the difference is down to git.kernel.org/linus/9a15fff05b702c3ea29ae64db0d3ff0355431eab If you can confirm that is the case I can easily sort that out as I commit it. I wonder if 9a15fff ought to be backported to the kernel in Jessie and correspondingly whether this flash-kernel change ought to happen in Jessie too (otherwise I'd just put it in experimental for the rest of the freeze).
