I tried that, but that's not the only thing required. Because the
Kconfig default the ISA is ISA_ARCOMPACT, allnoconfig uses that, no
matter what the default in the Makefile is.  And, since tinyconfig is
based on allnoconfig, it has the same problem.

I submitted a patch[1] that gets this working for me, and with that, 'make
defconfig', 'make allnoconfig' and 'make tinyconfig' all work with ARCv2
by default.
