According to this article I should be able to switch to ARMv8 on my Raspberry Pi Model 3B, but I'm getting "rainbow screen" after adding to config.txt the line:

arm_control=0x200
  • Why is it not working?
  • Is it even worth switching from ARMv7 to ARMv8 (taking into account I'm willing to compile some C++ programs in the future).

Why is it not working? Is it even worth switching from ARMv7 to ARMv8?I'm using Raspbian 9.1 "stretch" and /prc/cpuinfo reports "ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l)".
