Bug Description

Using the ubuntu classic server image for the raspberry pi 2, when performing a dist-upgrade via apt-get flash-kernel will report "unsupported platform" using a raspberry pi 2 V1.2. This is because there is no entry for V1.2 in /usr/share/flash-kernel/db/all.db

Please see the following patch...

@neoark I would happily accept a patch tested on bionic for the Armada as well.
