Subject: [edk2-platforms][PATCH 1/4] RPi3/RPi4: document 3A+ support.
Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2020 01:47:43 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200430084746.51455-2-andrey.warkentin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200430084746.51455-1-andrey.warkentin@gmail.com>

The RPi3 target also supports the 3A+, so let's document it.

(The 3A+ lacks the ethernet port and has less RAM)

Clarify RPi3 is for BCM2837-based variants, while RPi4 is
for the BCM2711-based variants.
