No Driver for Pi 4 in 6.1.21

There is no Pi4 folder in the 32 bit folder for Kernel 6.1.21. I can't get the drivers installed on one of my Pi's.

See #4 and for an alternative to Waveshare's drivers. The latest Pi kernels (6.1.25 and newer) have a reverse engineered driver for the Waveshare panels.

any chance the reverse-engineered driver can be compiled for a bananapi?

Quite plausibly, but it's not something that Raspberry Pi will be working on. I don't know how well DSI works on Banana Pis.
