Title:
  Missing RaspberryPi 3B+

Status in flash-kernel package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in flash-kernel source package in Bionic:
  Fix Released
Status in flash-kernel source package in Cosmic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  The new Raspberry Pi 3B+ is missing from the flash-kernel database.  Support has been added to the bionic raspi2 kernel, so it would be great if the other packages could support it too.
  Without this fix, every trigger of update-initramfs (which triggers flash-kernel) will fail on 3B+ platforms.

  [Test Case]

   * Boot up an Ubuntu raspi3 image on a Pi 3B+ and log into it
   * Run flash-kernel
   * Make sure no errors are reported (no "Unsupported platform.")
   * Reboot
   * Make sure the system still boots

  [Regression Potential]

  This is basically only adding support for a new board so should have
  no real regression potential. If the machine identification has some
  error making it identify normal Pi3's as B+ there's some risk of
  corrupting systems, but that should be quite visible whenever it
  happens.
