2712: release-notes: Update note for min supported version

If used in a build environment that sets SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH, we should
honour that in order to generate reproducible binaries.

 # Raspberry Pi4 bootloader EEPROM release notes
 
+## 2024-10-21: Fix PCIe BAR issue for some switches  (latest)
+
+* Boot-menu improvements
+  Remain in the forced boot mode until the menu is used to select a different
+  boot-mode or reset to the original boot-order.
+
+## 2024-10-10: Use soft-reset to preseve SDRAM contents after ramoops (latest)
+
+* SD card high-speed/low-voltage mode can only be exited by powercycling.
+  Pi 4s before rev 1.4 lack the power switch required to do this, so must
+  resort to a global reset that turns off many things, including SDRAM.
+
+  To ensure correct operation, the bootloader checks that the SD I/O
+  voltage is the expected 3.3V, forcing a power cycle if it isn't.
+  However, this doesn't take advantage of presence of the dedicated SD
+  power switch, always forcing a global reset, a consequence of which can
+  be the loss of SDRAM content - including any ramoops dump of the crash
+  logs.
+
+  Make the bootloader more SD_PWR_ON aware, only triggering a global reset
+  if one isn't found.
+  See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/5298
+* Remove requirement for GPT ptable array  to be at LBA-2
+  See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/issues/585
+* Introduce a new boot-menu feature where pressing SPACE at power on
+  gives the user a one-shot option to select a different boot mode.
+  e.g. Select USB boot if the default SD card is corrupted or unavailable.
+* Display the bootloader network-install UI for longer on a cold boot to make
+  this feature more visible to first time users.
+  To revert to the previous behaviour remove NET_INSTALL_AT_POWER_ON=1
+  from the bootloader config.
+* Default to 2GB start for PCI bus addresses on 2711 and 2712
+  This change also constrains the window size to 2GB, so all PCI bus address
+  assignments fall below 4GB, avoiding a potential bug with 32-bit BARs in
+  esoteric bus topologies (e.g. lots of GPUs).
+
+## 2024-09-05: Fix self-update if EEPROM is write-protected (latest)
+* arm_dt: Consult the hat_map for all HATs
+* USB boot - ignore RP2 / RP3 MSD device in BOOTSEL mode.
+* recovery.bin - Fix erase_eeprom to not block reboot_recovery
+* Fix self-update to continue to boot instead of retrying forever
+  if the EEPROM is write protected.
+  https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/issues/597
+
+## 2024-08-14 (recovery.bin) -  Add support for OTP metadata (latest)
+* Update to recovery.bin to output metadata about OTP during rpiboot
+
+## 2024-07-30 - USB boot fixes for CM4-S and interop improvements (latest)
+  * Resolve USB boot regression in 2024-04-17 relase on CM4S
+    See https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/issues/588
+  * Improve compatibility for booting from some USB SD card readers
+    https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/issues/527
+
+## 2024-07-05 (recovery.bin) - Enable program_rpioboot_gpio - (latest)
+  * Enable the usage of program_rpiboot_gpio in config.txt for recovery.bin
+    without requiring secure-boot to be enabled.
+    This may be useful CI systems provisioning images on Pi4B / Pi400
+    via RPIBOOT.
+    This is an OTP setting and cannot be reverted after programming.
+
+    See https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers/config_txt.html#program_rpiboot_gpio
+
 ## 2024-05-17 - Ignore bootloader updates for Pi5 on Pi4 - (latest)
   * Add timestamps to UART log messages.
   * Add support for [tryboot] conditional the bootloader EEPROM
