Hmm.  I guess the Arnd's idea what to simply use CONFIG_ARM64 directly instead
of adding this new option.
I agree.

So what exactly would be wrong with using IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARM64) here?
I'm not sure I follow why we need to check for ARM64 here at all. Can we
not just have something like:

	return adev && (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ACPI_CCA_REQUIRED) ||
			adev->flags.cca_seen)
