arm64:nosmp:defconfig

A quick glance through the build results suggests that the build failures can
probably be fixed by pulling in a couple of missing patches. For the qemu tests,
I'll run a comparison against 3.16.7 to see if those are new failures.

Details are available at http://kerneltests.org/builders.
