Since we're modifying a patchable PCD here, shouldn't we add a:

[PatchPcd]
   gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdSerialClockRate

section in PlatformLib.inf?

Of course, if we do that, we can't keep PcdSerialClockRate fixed for 
RPi4, as the build process will complain about PCD mismatch.

I also wouldn't mind a comment that explains how one arrives at figuring 
out that "_gPcd_BinaryPatch_PcdSerialClockRate" should be used to locate 
our address (and possibly the addition of :lo12:), because I don't think 
it's going to be that straightforward for people reading the code for 
the first time, though I fear that the explanation will boil down to "we 
need to do it this specific way for a gcc aarch64 relocation"...

With addition of "GCC:*_*_*_PP_FLAGS = -DRPI_MODEL=3" in the .dsc:
