The default for ARM is "any", which is specifically for linux-user and means "enable all possible user-visible instruction set options". That means it should be able to run any guest binary OK. Some other target CPU types do this, but not all; I think that ideally we should convert them to do similarly. I agree that the cases where we've picked some specific CPU to be the linux-user default are a bit dubious. -- PMM
