As an aside, I find it a little strange that arm64 allmodconfig does not 
have CONFIG_ACPI set. It used to have it set, and this patch stopped that:

     drivers: acpi: add dependency of EFI for arm64

     As Ard suggested, CONFIG_ACPI && !CONFIG_EFI doesn't make sense on 
arm64,
     while CONFIG_ACPI and CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN doesn't make sense either.

     As CONFIG_EFI already has a dependency of !CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN, it is
     good enough to add a dependency of CONFIG_EFI to avoid any useless
     combination of configuration.

     This bug, reported by Will, will be revealed when my patch series,
     "arm64: kexec,kdump: fix boot failures on acpi-only system," is applied
     and the kernel is built under allmodconfig.

That patch stopped many configs being set for allmodconfig.

With this change, CONFIG_EFI is not set. I think that this is because 
CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN is set for arm64 allmodconfig.

Any opinion on this? Could we change CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN to be unset 
for arm64?
