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

It should be the same as required in Raspbian. Have you checked the
details in /boot/efi/overlays/README? Out of interest what do you use
/dev/vchiq / vcgencmd for?

You don't need a custom kernel but you'd need to build your own DT as
obviously anything that is not default on the RPi devices themselves
is optional hence the requirement of overlays.
