On mainline, merely the defaults for an arm-none-eabi toolchain, i.e.
armv4t, -marm and -mthumb. On our internal branches (where a version
of the patch has been present for some time), a much wider set of CPUs,
including Cortex-M's and so forth with hardware multiplication
instructions.

(The list is approximately: ARMv4 ARM & Thumb, ARMv5te ARM mode with &
without VFP, various ARMv7-A configs including ARM & Thumb-2 mode,
Cortex-M3 & VFP-enabled Cortex-M4.)
