In the case of the RPi-400 are they all the C0 stepping? I don't see the 400 in your patch. Is there a documented way of detecting the stepping that can be used in U-Boot I can use to create a patch there, or did you have a test patch for this? Do you plan to send this patch upstream, if so feel free to add me to the cc and in the mean time I'll test it. > Unfortunately this doesn't fix the SD card issues on 32 bit. That's less of a problem, Fedora 36 will be the last version of Fedora to support 32 bit and I've always suggested people run 64 bit Fedora on their RPi4 and most people do tend to do that.
