is this specific to rpi3? if so perhaps the option should be tailored to just rpi3

Hello Khem !
Actually you introduced these changes in 2017 for the RPi 3 x64 and it stayed limited to it (bb51049),
I initially wanted to keep the new variable name generic like the others for future use on other audio parts.
Renamed it to ENABLE_AUDIO_BCM2835, let me know if you have other suggestions 👍.
