Not really, no.

Because we would still have two drivers for the same controller, and a
common one that haven't really been tested on anything but a single
platform. So arguably a worse situation than what you were suggesting in
the first place.

The best solution would be to find someone with a Rockchip board to test
your changes, or to get one if it's doable so you can test yourself.
