Thanks for the pointer!  I think you mean bug #986822, though. :)

I found that (on Debian, at least), the catpt driver works if the
IOMMU is disabled.  Debian enables the IOMMU by default for all
devices except Intel GPUs - I don't know about EndeavourOS, but it
might be similar.  You can disable the IOMMU using the option
"intel_iommu=off" on the kernel command line.

I reported Debian bug #1014299, and haven't gotten any response.  I
meant to bring it to the upstream kernel developers, but I've been
distracted. :)
