A good source of info to find out is to check the device tree files in
the official kernel source code:

    https://github.com/torvalds/linux/tree/master/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip

you'll see lots of rk3588 boards are supported and if you look inside
that board's `.dts` file you can see which parts of its hardware are
actually supported by the vanilla kernel (tho this is not written in
natural language, so if you're not familiar with the technical details
of devicetree files it can be somewhat challenging to interpret, YMMV).

If these can run the `armhf` port you should be fine for a few
more years.  For `armel` the writing is on the wall, tho.
