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.
