Set `framebuffer_ignore_alpha` to `1` to disable the alpha channel. Can help with the display of a 32bit `framebuffer_depth`.

NOTE: The architecture reported by `lscpu` is `armv7l` for systems running a 32-bit kernel (i.e. everything except `kernel8.img`), and `aarch64` for systems running a 64-bit kernel. The `l` in the `armv7l` case refers to the architecture being little-endian, not `LPAE` as is indicated by the `l` in the `kernel7l.img` filename.

The above uses the https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/wiki/Mailbox-property-interface[mailbox property interface] `GET_BOARD_SERIAL` with a request size of 8 bytes and response size of 8 bytes (sending two integers for the request 0, 0). The response to this will be two integers (0x00000020 and 0x80000000) followed by the tag code, the request length, the response length (with the 31st bit set to indicate that it is a response) then the 64 bit serial number (where the MS 32bits are always 0).

Eight rows of OTP (256 bits) are available for use as a device-specific private key. This is intended to support file-system encryption.

These rows can be programmed and read using similar `vcmailbox` commands to those used for managing customer OTP rows. If
secure-boot / file-system encryption is not required then the device private key rows can be used to store general purpose information.
