It looks to me like ARM64 needs its own entry above.

Thank you for pointing that out!

Nevertheless, this appears to be a different problem.

Upon reviewing this document carefully, I found that within this file, 
there are indeed other parameters where "ARM" should be changed to 
"ARM64" or "ARM64" should be added.

This is definitely worth re-verifying and submitting the changes separately.

Thanks,
