There is an argument that Thunder-X is a server platform, hence, there
is no need to do a tailored kconfig for it.

But I think that Sunxi would be nice to have as there are several
embedded boards out there using it. I know of a few people using Sunxi
embedded boards with Xen today in their business.

What if I remove the Thunder-X specific option but I keep the Sunxi
option?
