[Pkg-raspi-maintainers] Bug#975943: raspi-firmware: arm_64bit is missing and linux-image-arm64 unbootable

[Ryutaroh Matsumoto]

Package: raspi-firmware
Version: 1.20201022-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

The version 1.20201022-1 does not include "arm_64bit=1" on
arm64 architecture, which makes my Raspi runnning linux-image-arm64
unbootable...
Of course, adding "arm_64bit=1" by another computer
fixes the problem.

I did not have this symptom with older version.
So I believe that this is a regression.

Best regards, Ryutaroh Matsumoto
