Thanks Paolo and Seth for looking into this and the patches.  There's a
few things that could be done to make life on the pi better.  For
example, are there any plans to add support for the relatively new pi3b+
to bionic?  Adding efi stub to the raspi2 kernels would be great.  The
upstream and downstream mmc modules are both enabled on the raspi2
kernels and they conflict - I'm going to file a more detailed bug about
that later today.

Title:
  Raspberry Pi 3 microSD support missing from the installer

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Bionic:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Without this module in block-modules.udeb, the default generic arm64
  image cannot install on a raspberrypi3 board.

  [Test case]

  Build the block-modules.udeb with and without the attached patch and
  check for the presence of the drivers/mmc/host/bcm2835.ko.

  [Regression Potential]

  None, we are adding a ko to a udeb, not removing it.

  ---

  
  Please add bcm2835 to block-modules on arm64 (and armhf?).

  artful's arm64 d-i mini.iso works fine on Raspberry Pi 3 when booting
  with a UEFI-capable u-boot, except for one detail: mmc/host/bcm2835.ko
  is missing from block-modules, so you can't install to microSD without
  manually grabbing and loading the module.
