None of the ARM boards you cite are 64 bit capable.  
  - The A15 does have LPAE which allows for larger memory addressing but this 
is not general 64bit pointers in anyway.
  - LPAE allows multiple virtualized guests to each potentially get their own 
32-bit/4GB and unique memory using stage 2 translation

64 bit ARMv8 paths are:
  - The first 64bit coming from ARM is A57/A53 which is not in production yet
  - There are some early 64-bit ARMv8 chips sampling from some server vendors
  - Apple released its 64bit A7
  - Last I took a look there was ARMv8 simulators from ARM... probably the dev 
boards are around
  - ... other I've not noticed...
