Similar to "[v3,1/3] config/arm: avoid mcpu and march conflicts" here
also we can avoid selecting march if it's not supported by the compiler.
Ideally, we should exit the build with an error saying march/mcpu is not
supported and suggest further actions (like trying again with 
-Dmarch -Dmcpu or -Dplatform=generic-armv9 as discussed in [v3,1/3])
