Qwen3.5-122B runs on OrangePi AI Studio Pro after a device-capability shim fixes vLLM

The author says they finally got Qwen3.5-122B-A10B running on an OrangePi AI Studio Pro after a tweak informed by GLM5.2.
The key fix was to write a stub for rtGetDevMsg so it returns fake device-capability data, which lets torchnpu initialize properly. With that workaround in place, vLLM now runs on the device and becomes practically usable.
This is mostly a hands-on deployment note:
- local NPU/accelerator compatibility work
- a fake device-response shim to satisfy runtime checks
- vLLM becoming usable after the workaround
