A non-upstream patch was removed¹, which had kept the
long-deprecated uname -i and -p options.

uname (1) says -i and -p are valid options:
-p, --processor
print the processor type (non-portable)
-i, --hardware-platform
print the hardware platform (non-portable)
They are valid options, but there is no longer a Fedora
patch which made them report the same as `uname -m`. They
now report 'unknown' which isn't terribly useful.
The solution is use `uname -m` (which has been the ideal
option to use for some time -- it's only now exposed to
Fedora users, who had been getting a downstream patch).
An alternative to that, if you have to change your scripts, is to use
the "arch" command:
$ arch
x86_64
