Title:
  Raspberry Pi uses old, non-upstream DTB naming (bcm2710 instead of
  bcm283*)

Status in flash-kernel package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The upstream Debian package is correct, but the Ubuntu version of the
  package, even in Focal, uses the old bcm2710-* naming, which is a
  holdover from the days before upstream RPi support was put merged into
  mainline Linux.  This causes errors when using U-Boot as a uEFI
  implementation and the stock arm64 Ubuntu image with the stock arm64
  Ubuntu kernel, as every kernel upgrade, flash-kernel is looking for
  the wrong file name.  (Side note, the RPi 4 does use
  bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb in the upstream kernel, but every other Pi is
  using bcm2835 - bcm2837).
