Nope. I specifically don't want to enable support for TCI on random
who-knows-what-this-is architectures. It eats up too much time
causing people to worry about "what if this is some weird thing"
when they're trying to refactor code, when in practice nobody
is really using QEMU on oddball host CPUs.

If somebody wants to support QEMU as a TCI-only setup on a
new host architecture, they can submit a patch to configure
that specifically recognizes the host architecture (even
if we don't have a tcg backend for it).

thanks
