I'm unclear what all the /boot/efi/ usage is supposed to
apply to vs. what does not need to use the convention.
But:

RRENT-arm64-aarch64-RPI-20210318-a771bf748f9-245511.img.xz

is not based on using /boot/efi/ :

This was a fresh expansion onto media (and it did the
growfs during the boot: first boot).


Other notes:

I've no clue for other aarch64 small-board-computer contexts.

The 245511 in *-245511.img.xz and main-n245511-* match as
of this build.
