If a crash is being fixed, should we use a Fixes tag as well?

If we are already inside a 'CONFIG_ARM64' define here ^^^, do we even
need the following snippet now:

/*
* Some SC7180 firmwares didn't implement the
* QCOM_SCM_INFO_IS_CALL_AVAIL call, so we fallback to forcing ARM_64
* calling conventions on these firmwares. Luckily we don't make any
* early calls into the firmware on these SoCs so the device pointer
* will be valid here to check if the compatible matches.
*/
if (of_device_is_compatible(__scm ? __scm->dev->of_node : NULL,
"qcom,scm-sc7180")) {
forced = true;
goto found;
}

'forced' will always be 'true' now that we are inside the CONFIG_ARM64
check above, right?
So, maybe you can clean-up that path as well.

Thanks,
Bhupesh
