[Booting ROCK Pi 4(A/B/C) with mainline u-boot in SPI, NVMe and Armbian v20.11.x]

With Armbian 20.11.4+ pins shorting is not needed anymore for folks that already have Radxa's u-boot in their SPI flash.

Are you sure?
I use the Armbian_20.11.6_Rockpi-4c_focal_current_5.9.14_desktop and without the short circuit it would not work for me.
It was a brand new RockPi4c from the last production that i get for testing direct from Raxda.

You can add the Sabrent 256 GB Rocket NVMe PCIe M.2 2280 to the List, it works great according to your instructions.
I have translated parts of your instructions on my blog into German and used them with a reference to this post. I hope this is OK with you.
