Well we may do it.
But as I understood autobuilder script randomly selects config from this list
http://autobuild.buildroot.org/toolchains/configs/toolchain-configs.csv

Which means if we add more entries for ARC we'll have ARC build happening more often
But I'd like to keep balance as it is because obviously all targets should get equal testing.
