Seems fine, but I think you could have tested even before that using
-vo fbdev ;)

This won't run the tests for and enable NEON/VFP though.
I admit that I don't know if the VFP/NEON code we have will
just work for AArch64, but maybe worth testing instead of
adding support without even basic asm support?
