I can't help with the >4 cores bit but the 1.5Mbps serial link shouldn't be
a problem.  I have a Rock64 connected to a FT232R clone (something like
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32680591167.html) and don't have any problems.
(I had to patch ports/comms/conserver-com to support 1.5Mbps but everything
else "just worked").
