I assume you're talking about gcc's default, not any architectural default? The
ARMv8 ARM states that SCTLR_ELx.A doesn't have an architecturally defined reset
value (i.e. default).

(Sorry if this shows up twice; I typed it this morning and thought I submitted
it, but it hasn't shown up).

Thanks.
