I have a Pi4B that is working pretty well with the aarch64 version of Fedora 
Rawhide, but I have one issue that I haven't been able to find a solution to.

I have an Adafruit RTC connected via I2C 
(https://www.adafruit.com/product/3386).  If I use the kernel device tree, this 
device is not found.

I then tried switching to the firmware device tree via the instructions in 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Raspberry_Pi/HATs.  That works 
pretty well - I can now add an overlay for the RTC in /boot/efi/config.txt and 
the RTC is found during boot.  dtoverlay=i2c-rtc,pcf8523,addr=0x68

However, once I've switched to the firmware device tree, I no longer have /dev/vchiq, 
which means that I can no longer use vcgencmd.  Instead, vcgencmd gives me "VCHI 
initialization failed".

Is there any way to get both the RTC and vcgencmd to work?  Which device tree 
would I choose?  Do I have to build a custom kernel or is there some other way 
to enable the RTC with the kernel device tree?
