 I have hold off the upgrade to 2020.01 as rockchip u-boot needs a
newer ATF and they didn't made a new release yet. My plan is to wait
until 2020.04 is release and if at that time there is still no new ATF
release just update the ports to use the latest git version.

 Mhm no, I will not send patch upstream for someone else, I will also
not include patch in the freebsd ports tree that haven't been submitted
upstream.
