You'd need to make two. One with TARGET_ARCH=3Darm and one with =
TARGET_ARCH=3Darmv6. If I could have only one, then I'd want the =
latter... We'll have an arm64 in the 11-ish time frame....
Unlike x86, ARM will have a standard userspace, but custom kernels for =
most boards (ideally we'd have just one, but there's a lot of work to do =
to make that happen).
