There is a misleading typo in /usr/local/share/u-boot/u-boot-rpi-arm64/README :

QUOTE
# more /usr/local/share/u-boot/u-boot-rpi-arm64/README
U-Boot loader and related files for the 64 bit variants of the RPI

This u-boot config is made to be bootable on any 64bits RPI like the RPI2v1.1
RPI3 and RPI4.

For general information about U-Boot see WWW: https://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot
END QUOTE

Rpi2 v1.1 has the older Cortex-A7 BCM2836 SoC (not arm64 capable).
Rpi2 v1.2 has the newer Cortex-A53 BCM2837 SoC (arm64).
