Nevermind, ARCH was already a weak assignment. My patches changed the behavior.
I've been confused by the different approach used by powerpc vs
breakpoints/ipc/prctl tests.

Will you accept a patch to get rid on uname_M variable, keep ARCH
usage consistent across selftests?
In other words, align with the way it's done in powerpc test.
It won't fix any cross-compilation issues but improve consistency in the code.
