Just an FYI . . .

All the following need the patching in order to use
sufficiently modern RPi* firmware (and the involved
live Device Trees). I only list what I've tested
(what I've access to):

"C0T" 8 GiByte Rev1.5 RPi4B
"B0T" 8 GiByte Rev1.4 and 4 GiByte Rev1.1 RPI4Bs
RPi3B
RPi2B v1.2
RPi2B v1.1 (so: armv7)

I expect that the issue is far more general then that.
