Meh, it's the recent introduction of Cortex-A35 (commit
e9960da6ec84d0fc4f3d7ef8d9db5b1e29d79358 from Yann, added in Cc) that
broke this.

Due to this commit, Cortex-A35 is now the first AArch64 core, and
therefore the one selected by default instead of Cortex-A53.

So, a defconfig that has just

BR2_aarch64=y

will now build for Cortex-A35 instead of Cortex-A53. However,
Cortex-A35 support was only added in gcc 6.x, so only gcc 6.x/7.x are
allowed.

Dagg, you can for now fix that by selecting Cortex-A53 explicitly in
your defconfig:

BR2_aarch64=y
BR2_cortex_a53=y

Yann, do you think we should add a "default BR2_cortex_a53 if
BR2_aarch64 || BR2_aarch64eb" in the choice ?

Best regards,

Thomas
