According to our team, the thumb produces smaller code but with slower performance so we will not test with thumb enabled in our releases.

In our distros we will always set mx6 and mx7 without the thumb enabled.

Add Thumb as we does for i.MX6; it is supported by the ARM core and produces smaller and faster code.
