I cannot say what it will take to support it in debian for sure...

There does appear to be a target for it in upstream u-boot 2023.07-rc3
or newer, but I have not tried building it yet ... sometimes boards
require firmware that is not distributable by debian or other components
to build that are impractical to package for debian.

The doc/README.mediatek file seems to only address older variants...

The other main thing is to check what support is needed in the linux
kernel...
