Apparently OpenBSD has a driver for the Ethernet controller.

I’ve been running NetBSD-10 on an 8GB RPi4 for a quite a while now:

 6:16PM  up 416 days,  8:12, 6 users, load averages: 1.70, 2.04, 2.05

It’s been rock-solid, though it does struggle with some of the workload I'm throwing at it.

I have an RPi5 on order, and some spare time, though it’s been a while since I did any NetBSD kernel stuff. Maybe it’s time to change that.
