There's a number of other SoCs using it too :) It really just isn't default due to the problems of early-generation ARMv7 platforms and in turn my not wanting to break them by accident. But with that in mind, a deeper dive in to a few different vendor SoCs should tell us which ones need to default to off and what can be on, and we could get better size defaults all around (but not force, let people decide if thumb2-but-smaller is quicker boot than full-but-larger). -- Tom
