The arm64 defconfig is intended to work for all platforms.

I use that with qemu's '-machine virt'. Assuming you use virtio-net and
virtio-block, no additional drivers are required.

For example, I can boot a defconfig kernel using the followign QEMU options:

qemu-system-aarch64 \
        -m 2048 -smp 4 \
        -net nic \
        -net user,host=10.0.2.10,hostfwd=tcp::65022-:22 \
        -nographic \
        -no-reboot \
        -machine virt,accel=kvm,gic_version=host \
        -cpu host \
        -hda ${FILESYSTEM} \
        -snapshot \
        -kernel ${KERNEL} \
        -append "earlycon root=/dev/vda panic_on_warn"

Thanks,
Mark.
