I get the following message on the Raspberry Pi 4:

The currently running kernel version is 4.19.58-v7l+ which is not the expected kernel version 4.19.58-v7+.

The message persists after rebooting.

This is related to #146: Raspbian is shiping different kernel images to support different Raspberry Pi board variants.

This problem also occurs on a Raspberry Pi 3 with current Raspbian Buster. On a fresh installation of Buster, the boot partition is bigger than on previous releases (e.g. Stretch or Jessie) and contains additional kernel files:

kernel.img
kernel7.img
kernel7l.img
kernel8.img

kernel7.img (e.g. 4.19.75-v7+) is 32-Bit (armv7l) and used by default; kernel8.img (e.g. 4.19.75-v8+) is 64-Bit (aarch64). On my installation, the 64-Bit kernel causes random freezes, so I'd like to avoid it. A white- and/or blacklist as suggested by @liske would be great.
