the commit message doesn't really explain what is going on in this patch..

^^ this file is used by probably any armv8 machine out there, even
inside oe-core:
$ git grep "arch-armv8\.inc"
include/tune-thunderx.inc:require conf/machine/include/arm/arch-armv8.inc
qemuarm64.conf:require conf/machine/include/arm/arch-armv8.inc
so this change would break many things. and it's used in many BSP layers.

even without taking into consideration that this is changing all
default configs for arm64.. which should for sure be discussed and
agreed upon... the crc and crypto flags you are adding here, are not
defined anywhere.
please review how the armv7 variants were designed/introduced, and try
to mimic that for armv8 if you think it's needed.
