Hmm, my RPI2 v1.2 (which is an RPI3 without wireless) runs both arm64 and
armv7 just fine and has since late summer.  (All my testing of armv7 support
that was upstreamed into GDB 8.1 was done on that board.)  The main changes
it needed at the time were some u-boot updates and a commit to properly
disable a virtual timer on boot that was causing boot hangs.  I think there
might have been one other commit to make sdhci deal with the DTS not
including a clock frequency or some such as well.
