This means, Fedora can ship the mainline kernel for all ARM64 hosts, including the Raspberry Pi. It also means, any guides found on the internet about compiling a [generic] kernel from kernel.org/ should work as intended on the Raspberry Pi. The boot sequence is almost similar to x86 PCs with a BIOS/UEFI. This is also mentioned in the Raspberry Pi 4's Wiki.

The only reason why I am was trying to build the image was because I wanted to move stuff as mainline as possible and was worried that any installation made with the help of RPi4 UEFI firmware would stop booting after a while.

Instructions to build a Debian kernel package for Raspberry Pi 4B
I did some building of Debian kernels for the Pi 4B. The first one I did took over 24 hours to complete (running from an SSD.) I worked on getting cross compiling to work and have notes here https://github.com/HankB/Debian-Arm64-kernel-for-Pi-4B-on-X86_64
