As usual, feel free to correct, improve or comment, (good or politely bad).

Right now it only has Linux kernel tuning for the VPU, that @ElektromAn, showed us above. When I see a kernel option specific to us, I'll try and remember to add it to the list.
I use Manjaro ARM
because it`s suits my needs of new/fresh HEAD builds
Personally I use Sabayon (some Gentoo stlye system)
Anyway
Ayufans Ubuntu uses rkmpv with hardware VPU is a non standard way (missing API)

Debian may support rkmkv with ayufan`s kernel, please check library versions here.
If you want to use VPU acceleration support with other application(s) you have to wait
The whole API is currently not stable, there are other VPU accelerations IP available or in use.
And because of this the HANTRO driver is in staging, you can read this in Kconfig or TODO.
Chromium uses non standard hacks, which are really hacks
you are here on your own ...
As I said currently mp4 is supported to decode for video playback
h265 and vp9 are also on the list.
Please read here

I may possible to use some NEON aka MMX style optimizations
One side note :
All hardware vendors are bad in to do upstream work for their hardware.
And some $wireless-usb driver will not go into staging because of this
