FreeBSD core should review these. ARM architecture is and will be =
important for future.

1. ARMv8 should be upgraded from Tier 2 to Tier 1, as a supported =
platform.  Companies will not develop on FreeBSD if we dont properly =
support it.

2. And you cant have a supported platform sfor further development =
without ownership and maintenance. So, for sure the platform requires a =
maintainer.=20
