Typo?

src/arm64  ->  arch/arm64
src/arm    ->  arch/arm

Nit just in case.

scripts/checkpatch.pl reported 1 error, 1 warning:


ERROR: Please use git commit description style 'commit <12+ chars of

total: 1 errors, 1 warnings, 58 lines checked



The URL should not be split into two lines, so I think the warning can
be ignored.
But I think it is better to fix the error of commit description style.
