The arm64 defconfig is intended to work for all platforms.

I use that with qemu's '-machine virt'. Assuming you use virtio-net and
virtio-block, no additional drivers are required.

For example, I can boot a defconfig kernel using the followign QEMU options:

qemu-system-aarch64 \
-m 2048 -smp 4 \
-net nic \
-net user,host=10.0.2.10,hostfwd=tcp::65022-:22 \
-nographic \
-no-reboot \
-machine virt,accel=kvm,gic_version=host \
-cpu host \
-hda ${FILESYSTEM} \
-snapshot \
-kernel ${KERNEL} \
-append "earlycon root=/dev/vda panic_on_warn"

Thanks,
Mark.
