The current arm team policy is that anyone who tests on arm may mark
~arm, but only arch team members may mark things stable.  That said, we
do have a pretty lax policy for joining our team.

Additionally, it should be noted that this policy is not meant to get in
the maintainer's way when they truly do know best.  If a maintainer were
to need to introduce a fix to a config file, or some fix that didn't
change any C code or whatever that maintainer thinks truly shouldn't
affect compilation on any arch, then I think a stable bump is fine, and
avoids undue stress on the arch teams.

Thanks,
