From BMW M CEO Ludwig Willisch: Ceramic brakes will come as an option for several BMW M models, No BMW M3 CSL, no M3 Touring
From a recent Auto Motor un Sport interview with Ludwig Willisch:

"No market for a BMW M3 Touring"

"No BMW M3 CSL" "... at the moment"

"The US market 50% chooses BMW M3 in manual gearbox"

"No BMW M supercar coming soon (BMW M1)"

"M versions of the BMW X5 and X6 will come" "will hit the market end of next year"

"Ceramic brakes will come as an option on several BMW M models"

This generation of BMW M5and M6 will not receive the Double Clutch. It is SMG all the way until the next generation M5.
