Why is this not upstreamed to the Linux kernel DTS?

Don't you need vccio_sd as well since it's the vin-supply of vcc3v3_sd? 
(and also used as vqmmc-supply for sdmmc0

Should we have rk3568 mentioned here maybe? Not a blocker though.

Both defconfig and include files do not match here.

Any reason for explicitly disabling EFI support? (aside from other 
anbernic devices disabling it as well?) I believe some distros depend on 
that for booting up?

Is this really used? I'm thinking we should probably stop using this for 
new boards if possible?

Why no console? This will make debugging harder no?

Why remove clock-names?

Cheers,
