Since commit aa35ec2213b ("hw/arm/raspi: Use more specific machine names") the raspi2/raspi3 machines have been renamed as raspi2b/raspi3b. As more Raspberry Pi 2/3 models are emulated, in order to avoid confusion deprecate the raspi2/raspi3 machine aliases.
Note that the raspi3ap (posted yesterday) is a closer match to what we model than the raspi3b. But the B model has 1GB of RAM, while the A+ has 512MB. As a bigger amount of RAM is probably more useful to our users, I'm not suggesting replacing the raspi3 alias.
