I have a great interest in SBCs mainline compatibility, but I think they will always be "compatible but not fully", unless a given board will be specifically designed with this objective (at which point, there will be surely a trade off performance<>compatibility).
The RPi3 has in fact mainline support, but is not "fully compatible" (at least, in the x86 sense). I guess this will be the case for the RPi 4 also.
This is a shame, since any ARM board has essentially an expiry date. For this reason, my next board will be an x86 SBC (the "famous one"), however, it costs considerably more.
