It's the case that the vast majority of aarch64 platforms only function
when we have other binary files available for the final link and so have
a similar we had hoped loud enough WARNING message.  And yes, this is so
that all of the different CI systems can complete build testing.

So, can you please RFC some patches such that we can still run CI but we
drop all of the "non-functional" WARNING messages we have?  Thanks!
