+3.O. Enable UART
+===============
+
+RaspberryPi 1, 2 and CM will have UART console enabled by default.
+
+RaspberryPi 3 does not have the UART enabled by default because this needs a
+fixed core frequency and enable_uart wil set it to the minimum. Certain
+operations - 60fps h264 decode, high quality deinterlace - which aren't
+performed on the ARM may be affected, and we wouldn't want to do that to users
+who don't want to use the serial port. Users who want serial console support on
+RaspberryPi3 will have to explicitely set in local.conf: ENABLE_UART = "1".
