I figured that was probably the case. The only thing of note I see in
the logs is:

Feb 16 00:01:21 fedora kernel: of_clk_hw_onecell_get: invalid index 15
Feb 16 00:01:21 fedora kernel: [drm:vc4_vec_bind [vc4]] *ERROR* Failed
to get clock: -2
Feb 16 00:01:21 fedora kernel: vc4-drm soc:gpu: failed to bind
3f806000.vec (ops vc4_vec_ops [vc4]): -2

Interesting that I don't see the issue on minimal.
