Hi Jarkko,

Apologies for the delay in my response as I was busy with other high
priority work.

Firstly you need to do an OP-TEE port for RPI 400 (refer here [1] for
guidelines). And then in order to boot up OP-TEE on RPI 400, you can
refer to Raspberry Pi 3 build instructions [2].

Sure, I will incorporate your remarks and Randy's documentation
comments in the next version.
