Rockchip makes both 32bit as 64bit ARM SoCs, so `recipes-armhf` is
relevant.
If only Rockchip SoCs need the reserved partition and are detected as a
specific subarchitecture by archdetect, new specific recipes for this
subarchitecture could be added.
I don't know if it's common, but AFAIK you can use U-Boot with EFI, but
it sounds 'weird' to add it to a recipe with AMD64 in its name...
Indeed. If some ARM EFI platforms need the reserved partition, then one
of the recipes-arm*-efi symlinks could be replaced with a directory
containing new specific recipes and the other could be changed to point
to it.
