What's the problem? Have you checked the Windows App Store? For some reason they do the update through there instead of Windows Update.

Doesn't Mantle replace the need for DirectX 11.1 on BF4?

Yes, but only works on the new cards, or so I understand it.

Yes it will.
"Mantle will be available on any of AMD's Graphics Core Next GPUs, so anything from the 7000-series up."
