Yes, they should. However, this is just a prototype patch used to verify
the cross-compile functionality of the build system and is not directly
intended for merge. A proper implementation should, I think, come from
those more familiar with arm architecture than I am. [Hence the CC of
Jerin and Hemant on the patch]. Because of that I didn't go back to edit
the license tag of the patch i.e. I was a bit lazy. :-)
