[PATCH] docs/interop/firmware: Add riscv64 to FirmwareArchitecture

[Andrea Bolognani]

Descriptors using this value have been shipped for years
by distros, so we just need to update the spec to match
reality.

Hm.  Probably to my shame, I never shipped this file in
debian/ubuntu - neither the updated one nor the original,
and have no idea what it is used for :)

What's the context where it's used?

BTW, should I perhaps pick this change up to qemu-stable
too?

Thanks,

I don't think the file is used directly. It just defines what
firmware descriptors (shipped by edk2 and other firmware packages)
should look like.

No harm in doing that, but I would say it's unnecessary.
