It's for the regular boot process without UEFI.

But here we have in /boot/config.txt:

armstub=RPI_EFI.fd

that tells the firmware (start4.elf) to load EFI instead of a
kernel.  EFI then searches for /EFI/BOOT/bootaa64.efi on any
filesystem it can read.  And our bootaa64.efi fetches the kernel
from the root filesystem.
