Yes! :)

Why?! I packaged u-boot-bananapim64 myself (as linked in the Wiki above)
and updated arm-trusted-firmware to support A64. TF-A has downstream
dependencies in hardware:boot (HiKey) and therefore TF-A cannot go to
Factory until those get resolved. Ideas welcome.

Both hardware:boot and Contrib:Pine64 build mainline U-Boot with
mainline TF-A. There is no need to use arm-trusted-firmware-pine64
anymore, it is unused now and IMO candidate for deletion if no bug
reports arrive for the current A64 and H5 based U-Boot packages.

Andreas
