Considering that there is nothing highbank specific to enable BE support
and all the support is within the A9 core (as BE support was never an
intended feature), I wonder if this is really the right place for this
option. All this really says is BE has been tested on this platform and
presumably it would work on other platforms ignoring raw vs. relaxed
accessors.
In any case:
