So my setup is basically an 2022 M2 Apple Macbook Air, with a Fedora
spin of Asahi.

I run it natively, but because not all of the Asahi kernel patches are
in, currently I end up with two trees (exactly like my main desktop,
actually): one that is my plain kernel that I run allmodconfig builds
on, and a separate tree for "local boot testing".

That "local boot testing" tree is basically the same tree except I
merge in the Asahi kernel to get the drivers (that aren't upstream yet
(it's 150+ patches for iommu, HID, GPIO, wireless, power, and dts
files).

The asahi side doesn't contain any actual architecture changes
(outside of the dts files).
