Intel Baytrail panics because of buggy ACPI table

Hello,

Intel Bay Trail/Silvermont devices are becoming quite popular.
Unfortunately current FreeBSD releases don't work on them, as they get a
kernel panic.
A patch for this has been implemented in Linux, and a few months ago in
FreeBSD CURRENT as well. A few weeks ago I asked that it be included into
the STABLE branches as well, so that it makes its way into the next
releases.

I can see that it was added to the STABLE branches a few days ago, as per
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=187966

Now my question is this; will this fix make its way into 9.3 RELEASE, or is
it too late?
Would be good if it did IMO, as said a lot of people are buying Bay Trail
struff.
