How to update to newer Espressif SDK

I did not verify, but I suppose that the ESP8266 Arduino adaptation package is not always aligned to the latest Espressif SDK.
In this case, what is the easiest solution to update the SDK used by ESP Arduino layer ?

Since Arduino framework is on top of the SDK, it is not always an easy task to upgrade SDK, since any changes in the APIs force to update the Arduino framework to be adapted accordingly.
So, it is to to @IGRR to decide when upgrade should be done.
Currently, the stable 2.1.0 framework is using SDK 1.5.1_16_01_08, which is not that far from the latest.

Yes, I know !
So, there are 21 days between those 2 releases.
You can check the ChangeLog of the 1.5.2 on Espressif BBS if you wish to know if the changes is really relevant for you.
