The dwiic driver itself seems to attach, the only device that I can see
on the Star64 schematics that is connected to i2c is a pcf8563 RTC but
it isn't listed in the device tree. Does the VisionFive2 have more
things on i2c?

Didn't get anywhere with network timeouts, there are no driver errors
logged.
