Bug Description
Impact
======
A new variant of the Raspberry Pi 4 (revision 1.2) has been released (presumably to deal with the USB-C power issue [1]). Without a corresponding entry in the flash-kernel database, users of this board will receive an error whenever flash-kernel is run (e.g. on kernel updates); see LP: #1848790 comment #44 for an example.
Test Case
=========
* On a Pi 4 Rev 1.2 board, boot an Eoan image (working around LP: #1848790 as necessary)
* Attempt to run "sudo flash-kernel"
* Observe the "Unsupported platform" message
* Enable proposed
* Run "sudo apt upgrade" to upgrade the flash-kernel installation
* Run "sudo flash-kernel" once more, observe no error
Regression Potential
=======
Extremely low; the change is a one liner adding a matching "Machine" line to the database. It doesn't remove or alter existing lines. The worst case scenario is that the Machine line doesn't match the model in the device-tree (in which case it'll still produce "Unsupported platform").
