With big-little, any affected A53 will need it, even if the code also
runs on an A57. If we do enable it by default on A53, we'll have to do
the same on A57.

And how much compile time increases? And what's the effect on benchmarks?

Until we have answers to those questions, I think a flag is probably
the best option.
