Thanks for the link. I just integrated these patches into my buildroot environment and reconfigured the odroidc2 defconfig to build for BR2_arm=y and BR2_cortex_a53=y instead of aarch64. The results suggest, however, that uboot is not able to build for the odroidc2 with armhf only:

To me this looks like U-Boot is not able to be built for the odroidc2 using only a armhf compiler. Or are there any u-boot defconfig changes I could try and hopefully see a 32bit build for the odroidc2?
Apart from that, are there really no possibilities to build a multiarch (aarch64+armhf) buildroot environment that allows to run 64bit and 32bit binaries at the same time? Or am I missing something?
