Revolutions ended with Neo forming an uneasy pact with the machines to help defeat Smith, in exchange for them leaving Zion alone and agreeing to free anyone who wished to be unplugged.
So, what's going on this time around? Well, from the few shots featuring the machines, they seem to be responsible for repairing Neo and Trinity's bodies and reinserting them into the Matrix - at the behest of who, we do not know.
Whether the machines will have a role beyond facilitating their resurrection remains to be seen.
