I like it, but...

If we do it for CROSS_COMPILE we should do it for ARCH as well.
Something like
ifeq ($(origin ARCH), undefined)
ARCH := $(SUBARCH)
endif

And then group ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE togeher in the Makefile, and
provide a few meaningful comments.
I will test it tomorrow if you do not beat me in it.
